This
is a rather strange and different electronic band. They are very experimental
with various electronic sound effects, samples, drum programming, voices,
ambient noises, keyboard melodies, etc. all in the mix to create some
music that is way out there. Some tracks are experimental while others
are a little more structured. There are tracks with piano and singing
like lounge music mixed with sound effects and various noises and samples.
Everything lacks singing for the most part. There are mainly experimental
instrumentals delivered here with voice samples. Some tracks have energetic
rhythms and beats that you could almost dance to, while others are strictly
slow and melodic ambient music. I will admit that this band seems to
get a little more creative with what they do making their songs stand
out a little more in my opinion. Their music is easier to listen to
than a lot of other similar bands like them because there is a lot happening
in it that keeps you wanting to listen just to hear what they are going
to add next. Also, each track does sound different. That makes things
more interesting as well. Some have a funk sound while others have jazz/blues
and there is even some pop and techno moments here as well. The bottom
line is that I myself just don't find this kind of music that appealing.
But for this style of music, this band does it a lot better than most.
If you enjoy ambient/experimental/electronic music that is really strange
and out there, I would suggest that you give this Mig album a try. It
has an edge to it that a lot of these types of bands usually seem to
lack.
