Press Reviews
Fabrik Nos writes on: "THAT WAS ALL (ETHEREAL SONUS LTD.)" - Phat beat, awesome analog sounds accompanying it. Great bass kick. Like the use of resonance/echo, good vocals sitting in the back of the spectrum. Is this your voice? I love it. Reminds me a bit of Information Society, a little Mesh thrown in for good measure. Great tune man, is the rest of your work like this for the most part? A DAM you would recommend? ///Meloman of S83 wrote on "THAT WAS ALL (ETHEREAL SONUS LTD.)" - That was good...Your music is awesome. In general, I found your song to be extremly original and your music knocked me off !///Robert Prince - "RODEO JESUS" I've listened to "RODEO JESUS" about 20 times! Good production. It is catchy, I have to concur with that. I like the chorus. The singing is very Bowie-esque in that section. Lyrically, some of the other parts remind me of Jesus Jones. And not just because of the Jesus connection.The beat has some interesting variations. I like the fasts rolls and distorted sub bass especially. Perhaps the song would benefit from dropping the 4/4 bass kick out more often. I know it drives the song along, but it also gives everything a Dance/disco feel. The lyrics are masked enough that you have to struggle to understand all of them, which keeps it Mysterious. *"FLOATING A CLOUD"* Good buzzy acid basses and contrasting pads start the track off on a good note. Grabs the attention adequately. The first bit of the vocal is another good attention grabber. Powerful, deep tone. Your voice is somewhat Jeff Buckley-esque.Lyric wise I'd say you've got the right idea. Its exactly the kind of words for the music, what people want to hear in an acid house tune. Nothing too complex or engaging, but something you can grasp without paying too much attention to. I really don't mean this as an insult either, its a total compliment. The vocal sets the mood in so many ways without relying on the actual words, they're more or less unimportant. They are human and the music is machine. The overall feel of the music is catchy. Its a void, its ethereal, but its still catchy. In alot of ways a typical sound for a certain era of music I think. Its a good sound though. I listened to the lo-fi version of *"THE THING"* also. It has a nice understated tightness to it. (Whatever the hell that means.) I like some of the odd twists in the beats. There's some f-ing cool acid tweaks in there too. I still really like the acid sound to be perfectly honest, some might say its played out, but I think it can still be used in all sorts of ways as long as you're careful not to get cheesy. What I'd like to hear added to the track is some really overdriven guitars and perhaps a sporadic vocal or creative use of some samples. Its a good groove though. ...and the lo-fi of *"WHY (Waste Time/Fallin' in/Vein-Mix"*, which has a very complex title it seems. Love the beeps and blops in this one. And again, the vocals work well. They're probably my favorite part of the track. The acid lines are nice and fat, but pretty straightforward. Same with the beats. This one is going to make me get out my Primal Scream CD.-(WoodWorm) The Rant/Lowfidelity.com:Robert Prince "LoSt"It sounds like Robert Prince has been listening to his old 80's melodramatic pop records again. Now, now Robert. This comes across as an incredibly lo-fi Marc Almond, fronting a bleaked-out New Order. Which is a pretty fucking weird idea, when you think about it. Anyhoo, it kind of works, in a Human League without the glam kinda way. Miserable sounding vocals, sequenced working class kitsch, it's all there. And actually, it quite grows on you. Unlike any Marc Almond record.Just listened to "HOLE LAVA LOVE", and was pleasantly surprised. there's nothing terribly special about this track, or at least the elements that make it up.. basic looped breakbeat, simple riffs etc.. but when combined with those vocals, there's something there that really works for me.. very 80's meets 90's music here. The "HOLE LAVA LOVE" vocals are well wierd.. they sound like they've come from some 60's crooner song, but stuck in with the breakbeats & bass, they sound spooky. the vocal howls are awesome too. Good stuff. |
