Sophisticated arrangements, tricky BrokenBeatz, impulsive use of dynamics as a musical feature and a harmonic structure, which leads to the assumption of a distinct jazz background of the musicians - at first glance this does not seem to turn out as a particularly cool and danceable clubsound. With their debut RESET, LIQUID LOOP prove that black is white!
LIQUID LOOP have been working on their first album for almost a year - the result is a release, which, despite the high musical quality, goes without any of those unbearable instrumental monster-lick-speed-scale-extravagance, but hits the listener straight with its catchy and extremely soulful style, tight grooves and elaborated clubsound.
What is STYLE?
LIQUID LOOP'smaster planincludes a broad spectrum of different influences: Jazz, Soul, BrokenBeatz, Deephouse, Drum & Bass, Brazil - to name just a few. To be caught in the crossfire of influences does not mean falling between two stools. The result of such a diverse musical background is a very unique sound, which incorporates the different styles in such a convincing manner, as they would belong together anyway. It is also not a balancing act between boasting of musical competence and a reference to a straight and progressive clubsound. By the discrete but well considered presence of instrumental skills, the musical potential of the musicians is always clearly observable.
