So just how awful is that new Photek tune?

Post by Skullbussa »

101 (Zuma). Quite possibly the most bullshit piece of music I have heard released by a known professional. It's quite astonishing how bad it is, I wonder if Benji B grimaces each time he has to play it. There isn't a single thing original, melodic, driving, raging, surprising, or clever about it.

Gets especially hilariously bad around 1:45.

Havent heard any Photex stuff before apart from a couple of bits but this is really nice.

"Gets especially hilariously bad around 1:45" - Eh ? Really ? I like that sound, and with that vocal bit as well, proper nice.

i love the basic-channel-esque chords at the start!

it's not nearly as bad as your making out, it's a good tune.

Average tune by a fantastic producer.

It sounds like music from a car advert.

We get middle of the road electronica or trip hop for a lot of our car adverts.

This isn't a bad tune. But I see what you mean, considering it's Photek, it's nothing special.

And our car adverts are mostly breaks and electro, aren't they?

Think its a good tune, its not Water Margin or Seven Samurai but oh well. Avalanche is a better tune.
