Tigerskin: All Those Goodbyes Label: 200 Records Note: This album comes out on Oct. 14, and KZSU's getting it 5 weeks in advance! Tigerskin's album is amazing - all sorts of blissful and dreamy house music rich with synths and catchy basslines. German producer Tigerskin (a.k.a. Alexander Kruger) has released a ton of music since the mid 90s on labels including Force, Raum, and Resopal. The album itself spans multiple styles, from disco, house, downtempo, and tech-house. Virtually every track on this album is some sort of tasty good electronica. In many ways, the slower and chilled-out tracks are my favorites. My picks include: #2 "7477": Blissful spacey-disco/house collaboration w/ Till Von Sein #4 "Inside the Groove": Definitely groovy house track w/ The LazarusMan #6 "Early Winter": Wonderful warm pop/downtempo #7 "Love Went Without Saying": Like an 80s pop ballad. Love it. #8 "This Place is Empty Without You": The Orb would've loved this one. #13 "Stella": A great techy-house collaboration w/ "Evil" Eddie Richards TRACK BY TRACK LISTINGS: 1. "One Too Many Times" (6:54) - Funky disco-80s infused house w/ lively bassline and catchy vocals & percussion. 2. "7477" (5:28) - Deliciously dreamy, richly layered synths, a slightly slower beat but still lots of groove. 3. "Heartbreakin' Body" (6:39) - Trippy-spacey house w/ bits of congas & a catchy melody 4. "Inside the Groove" (6:21) - Funky/groovy house w/ vocal samples and blippy little synths that are super catchy. Love that funky bassline. So good… 5. "The And" (8:33) - A longer and meandering track w/ gorgeous pianos, warm and exotic ambience. 6. "Early Winter" (3:02) - Lovely downtempo & dreamy pop. Warm synths, strings, vocals. 7. "Love Went Without Saying" (4:37) - Super-dreamy! 80s pop-ballad aesthetic, bubbly synths & chimes. Simply lovely. 8. "This Place Is Empty Without You" (9:43) - Blissed-out dreamy & exotic breakbeat/ambient. The highest compliment I can say about it - reminds me of the Orb. 9. "Leaving You" (9:43) - A bit melancholy and pensive melody, shimmering synths and a house beat. 10. "Thursday" (9:05) - Smooth synths, neat little guitar melody, warm and tropical feel. 11. "Retrofit" (6:43) - Nervy electro-house, big techy break in the middle, funky bassline. 12. "On the Corner" (6:42) - Tech-house with signature warm synths, with driving beat and samples of people talking as though they were on a street corner 13. "Stella" (6:52) - "Evil" Eddie Richards lends a hand on this tech-house remix - hard thumping beats, claps, great rolling bassline, and signature Tigerskin synths 14. "Burning Down Paris" (4:10) - Shimmering tones, lush synths - dreamy downtempo track | ||
