Reviews
From the secret underground sun-drenched beaches located somewhere deep underneath Vancouver, comes a new track from Blood Diamonds. “Heart”, the track’s sound is a cherry picked batch of trademark components from across a phylum of electronic music known for its tendency to mesh melodic and percussive elements. Dub, Balearic, acid house, Illbient, and arguably several more sister/hybrid genres are well represented within the dense layers of this tranced out Tropicalia progeny. A Temptations vocal sample morphs from sing-song loop to electronic lead and back again. Rhythms come and go organically, supported by a drumline’s worth of heavily filtered percussion. An enticing track for fall that may have enough baked in heat to warm your ears as it pipes through your headphones.
