Track 8 - Just a Thought.

Quite liked that one, even if it seemed to be missing the other half of the song.

Not sure these Japanese tam-tams - a la Bill Bruford - work quite so well here...

Track 9 - Transformer.

Overdone on the production.

Not really getting the balance of soul, hip-hop and weirdness quite right.

By speeding things up big time it sounds like UK/Chicago Drill.

by Guest Thu Oct 15, 2020 8:54 pm

Does sound a bit like 80s George Clinton, kinda. With a busy drum pattern.

At least CLG gets to rap.

Track 10 - Who Cares?

by Guest Thu Oct 15, 2020 8:55 pm

The running order could do with a bit of a tweak, maybe start the album slow and then put the fast busy ones at the end?

Or the other way around.

It's deep how you can be so shallow.

by Nightjar Thu Oct 15, 2020 8:56 pm

I like this.

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Thu Oct 15, 2020 8:57 pm

Track 11 - Online.

by Guest Thu Oct 15, 2020 8:58 pm

This album reminds me of Coldplay.

The songs have the hooks, but they don't have the missing bits that join the hooks together. it's like eating Smarties when you're hungry.

Still at least the songs are stopping when they run out of song, must be for the streaming market.
