Last
year when I was reviewing music using Spotify, I didn’t have the internet at
home. Just let that sink in for a
little bit, shall we? Now, not only do
I have the option to listen to music via Spotify from the comfort of my own
home, I can also write the review in due time and post it as such.
Being
an organized person of lists and the such, after looking over the internet for
new releases that might interest me I then separate them into three
categories. (Yes, some releases I do see
go up on sites and just don’t even bother listening to them, but that’s another
story) When I first listen to something,
it will either end up into the “I don’t want to listen to this anymore/make it
stop/no way I’m reviewing this/why is Spotify frozen but the song is still
playing/screw it I’m unplugging the computer/manual shutdown” pile (Which
consists of deleting the band name and album title, if I have them written
down) or they will end up going in my list to review.
Some
odd months ago, Bibio ended up in my “to review” list, which meant that after
listening to him a few times over I must have found something in these songs
that made me want to write up a review for them.
However,
when I most recently listened to these songs I had to ask myself what I was
thinking back then. This month, these
songs sound to me like something that wouldn’t have made the second round cut,
much less lasted this long.
So
Bibio combines the electric with the acoustic in a way that goes from IWTs to
EFS and though it can touch on slowed down video game music at times, it’s
hardly 8-bit. Mostly it’s electronic
programs with acoustic guitar meshed in.
Give it a try because if I listen to it again I might be back on the
wagon.
