Triangular - by Javi Canovas
Atmospheric stormy wind sounds fill the air as if rushing through a huge mountain valley, then organ sounds grow taking over as the winds dissipate into the ether. The organs swirl and evolve in an almost aboriginal flavour. Then electronic stabs of sound punctuate and replace the organ. A rhythmic mix of sounds evolves rather groovily with modern Kraftwerk like electronics and rather hypnotic beats and effects that fill the room. This really gets your feet tapping, head nodding and body moving! It is so infectious dancey trancey music that builds and gets louder as lead lines and effects are constantly being added without too much clutter. Lead lines and effects inject the music with shots of adrenalin and euphoria to the mix. This is very hypnotic music of a quality that only years of experience and skill can achieve. In the last couple of minutes it breaks down gradually and as the final notes fade out we are left with just the organ to end. This is a wonderful track by Javi, and he is certainly on musical form right now with inspired vibey music. Essential music indeed.
