Distance - My Demons mp3 album

I bought it but returned it. There's good grooves and good beats on it, but the tracks don't go anywhere, like his inspiration gave in halfway through every track, which is a shame. The sound is very synthy and quite distinct however, and there's definetely some good stuff here, (personal favourites being the heavy and grimey 'Night Vision' and also 'Ska' with it's epic riddim) but overall his compositions are lacking and a bit dull. Also, in my eyes he did not exploit the potential of the synths and rythems he uses throughout the album, which leads to a lack of dynamics. Also, it might just be me not having a huge subwoofer in my place, but some of the tracks are somewhat lacking in bass, a problem I have not come across with most dubstep records. In short: In the end, I find it boring and lacking the proper dancefloor punch.

You "return" music that you don't like? In my opinion this is dishonest. Return something when it's defective, or when it gets damaged during shipping, but not when you regret buying it because the music isn't as good as you thought it would be. Not only did you return the product, but you left a bad review. So, you ripped off the artist and then decided to talk smack about the artist too. Good grief.

Totally understand what you are saying. But i also think that it just isnt your style. Not to say your review is wrong, its an opinion so dont think im being un-fair, I just feel people who enjoy this style of dubstep will love this album, i totally love the minimalistic vibes from this album so brilliant. As for lacking insperation i dont agree with the potential of the synths isnt supost to be complex, its done to be simple, and if you enjoy that syle of dubstep i would recomend it totally. i love this its brilliant deep dark and simple but effective. very well produced. It wasnt ever going to be a dancefloor rave filler...it isnt supost to be. peace and no dissrespects, just wanted to share my thorts.

Summary: the best dubstep album to date. This LP needs time. at first you just like the harder ones like "Ska", "Night Vision" and "Mistral". But with every listen you discover the over tracks more and realise that tunes like "Tuning", "Fractured", "Confined" and "My demons" are the real killers on this one. Distance is like a few others able to create such an intense industrial, cold and grimey atmosphere. And he samples one of my favorite films in "Tuning" - Kiefer Sutherland in "Dark City". Extra point for that ;-)
