FULL TECHNO

THIS IS ONE OF CRYSTAL METHOD'S BEST TUNES. It is very techno but has enough texture that it should satisfy most progressive fans. A flaw of some electronic music is that it tends to be too repetitious. This tune dodges that bullet by providing a nice contrast between major and minor keys giving a broader emotional experience. The 30 second sample linked below is fairly representative:


REVIEW
This song starts with a synthesized zinger and some piano notes soon joined by a pulsing synthesizer bass melody. At 1:10 an alto synth line emerges and intertwines with driving drums. At 3:15 the more bass oriented synthesizer returns with some bell-like synths accentuating what becomes a complex rhythmical tune. At 3:40 the song slows down but returns to its more driving beat at 4:20. It finishes up in driving-beat mode with a wildly sliding synthesizer fading out at 5:10 to complete silence at 5:35.
