I like it - bass and everything. Actually, the bass is my favorite part of the track. I've been a bassist for 30+ years and spent many years playing in funk bands, so maybe I just hear it from a different perspective than others do, but I like the way it grooves and the way the buzzing cuts through the mix (reminds me of the chatter and buzzing you get from a nice fresh set of bass strings). The funky house piano and vox are a nice touch, too.

It's really not bad. And I, too, like the bass. It's a very unique sound. Really, the track doesn't seem to take itself too seriously but also takes some risks. From the tacky-tines to the decidedly understated recessed percussion, to non-looping piano - all told a nice, well-rounded tune which feels like a jam.

My only problem is that I don't really see people with pacifiers and glow-sticks taking this song seriously enough to dance to. I don't think it's really going to attract the prototypical 'raver' crowd. Don't get me wrong. I think it sounds great, just not reaching for laser beams great

This isn't your glowstick crowd type of music anyway. This is house music.


Anyways,
This is a good track whatever people might say. I might be inclined just to take a little off the top of the bassline, only for the reason that it tends to detract from the excellent composition going on around it. but I think this is one of those style tracks where the more you listen the more you hear if you catch my drift. Perhaps even automate it so that you just take some of the edge off it as the other stuff creeps in.

Just like Cryo, all those years ago I was also a bassist and think it definitely works as a concept, to change it now would be to steal the soul from the track.

Just my two cents.

Cheers
Nem
