Tom: All right, Example, you’ve done good before. Let’s see what your laid-back half-rapping half-singing brings us this time.
Tom: You know, that’s not quite a Eurobeat track, but it’s close – certainly the closest I’ve heard in mainstream music for a while, I think. I can see this, with minor differences – maybe a female vocalist – coming out of Germany a decade ago. I say that as a compliment – there’s a reason those styles still persist today.
Tim: A good time in music, was that. And speaking of which, I caught a bloke at work who’s normally all ‘hip-hop’s the one true way’ listening to Alice Deejay on his headphones the other day. Now I have leverage.
Tom: Interesting bridge, though; done entirely in the backing, with the pause and rising effect. Not sure it works, other than breaking up the song a bit; the ending does seem to just peter out after that.
Tim: I actually really like it – it’s more a variation on a theme than a standard bridge switch-out, and I think it works well.
Tom: It’d do well in the middle of a DJ set, this would.
