Well arranged beat
Too bad the vocals are so drowned out in this track. Production is great. The melody is pretty original and makes the toes tap. I like the floyd-like hook. Well made tune really, and the lyrics sound original although they're hard to hear. Great drum track. It's one of the most complicated percussion tracks of any genre i've yet to review.

Originality Always Stands Out
My first impression is that this is an interesting song.
I liked the blend of percussion and vocals as well as the arrangment.
The choice of instruments blend nicely and are played well.
The song is just the right length to keep me interested and want to have another listen.
Most of the time I could hear the vocals clearly which always goes down well in my book.
At times though the lead vocal got lost in the jumble of background vocals which made it hard to hear what was being sung at the time.
I like the seductive tone of the lead vocal, it invites the listener to come in and hear what it has to say.
The lyrics have depth and make them worth listening to which is great considering the amount of shallowness we try so hard not to drown in everyday.
This is a song that would stand out from most because of its originality.
I'd definitely like to hear more from this artist and encourage him to keep on growing as a songwriter and I look forward to hearing more from him in the future.
