Somehow,
this cassette opens with an audio clip about how Santa Claus is a white man who
enters your house during the night through your chimney and, yeah, it is kind
of weird when you think about everything associated with Santa so I’ll just
listen to this and agree because he’s always been one of those fictitious
characters that seemed even too fake to be fake.
Synth
beats take us into a synth type of guitar drive and it just has this overall
hard feel to it where it just wants to explode into hardcore but doesn’t
quite. It’s got these claps, but then
the synth turns more uplifting and less angry as the end of Side A comes with
the return of the audio clip (But nothing more about Santa) and an electro feel
that reminds me of Ghostbusters on the whole.
Side B
tells us two different stories before it ends and they’re laid out pretty
easily. At first, there are these synth
skip loops that have beats accompanying them and the sound turns quickly into
Phil Collins. As much as it is a throwback
to Mr. Collins, the music also exhibits a more modern feel as well, such as an
instrumental version of Owl City, and the two when combined are apparently
quite pleasant on the ears. Then we
enter an audio clip about flying saucers, which is interesting to say the
least, and the whole sound just goes there right with it.
Only
fittingly, this cassette ends with the sounds of seagulls and then waves crashing
into the beach. I’m not quite certain
how it is all connected exactly or if it even is, but it is quite a fun ride to
take.
