New Banvox: “High And Grab”

The EDM (or, at least close enough to be lumped in with that vague term) continues on this fine Monday. Over the weekend, Banvox shared his new single “High And Grab,” a frantic electronic number anchored by an at-times sliced up vocal sample (though, as frequently, straightforward pep talk) that features all the tight sounds you’d expect from a main stage number, including a brief bit of bass terror (that sounds like a robot sheep blehing at you). Yet it adds some variety in as well, highlighted by a particularly triumphant horn-like passage early on, that sounds as confident as anything he’s done to date. Listen above.

  • New House Of Tapes: Trip Science

    名古屋のHouse Of Tapesのデビューアルバム”Trip Science”はとても奇妙で、初めて聴く時は少し戸惑うかもしれません。皮肉でも何でもないのですが、この激しく至って暗いサウンドは凄く独特なのです。House Of Tapesの音楽はいつでもまるで耐重力訓練のようで、Gasper Noeの映画を全て通して観ているようなダンス・ミュージック。単純に”House”とカタゴライズできる程シンプルでないのです。 でも”Trip Science”はアルバムとしての完成度が高い事は確かです。“Chaos Tape”に使われたチャイムの音が繰り出す美しくポップな不気味さはHouse Of Tapesらしいギミックですし、“Faint Light”での激しいビートや打ち込みはまるでブラック・ホールに吸い込まれて行くような感覚。去年リリースされた“Starting Point”や分かりやすいタイトルの”Noise Attack”は未だに新鮮さを失わず、アルバムにも違和感無く収録されています。凄く挑戦的な音楽ですが、聴くのは決して挑戦にはなりませんよ。ダウンロードはこちらから。
