3Canal – The Best of (Revolution) Reviewed by Sadie O., 6/2/06 Rapso – complex and infectious soca beats with hip hop sensibility. The beats fucking KILL, and the 4 (later 3) male singers make great harmonies with socially conscious lyrics, as well as creating more syncopation with a sort of rap/chant. This is a GREAT fucking band – play til your ears bleed! CD 1 is the party disk, although it’s often plenty militant, CD 2 is the experimental disk (although hardly the electronica sort of experimental!), CD 3 is actually a DVD of music videos, which I took! Track 6 on CD 1 and track 9 on CD 2 are so good it’s insane. CD1: 1. 4:27**slightly uptempo driving soca with lots of percussion, hint of steel drums, great lyrics. 2. 4:37 ***somewhat uptempo with great bounce, mostly percussion and vocals. 3. 4:54 **a bit uptempo, full sound, all about mud. Whee! Mud! 4. 3:53 *computer voices at intro, a bit silly until the beat comes in – it’s a great beat. 5. 3:57 **electronic steel drums intro, complex vocal and drum syncopations. About Jouvay carnival. 6. 4:17****midtempo, militant riddim, great fucking song! 7. 4:52 ***uptempo carnival groove with Latin horns, fun lyrics. 8. 4:36 **handdrums and funky midtempo groove with lots of horns. About the joy of Trini Carnival. 9. 4:41 *midtempo carnival groove. 10. 4:29 **midtempo, militant vibes. 11. 4:10 *midtempo, a bit downbeat, cool booty-shaker. 12. 5:06 **a bit downtempo, dancey as hell, cowbell and vocal syncopation. 13. 4:30 **uptempo militant riddim, hot hot hot! 14. 4:22 **slightly uptempo strong riddim with meaty production. 15. 2:32 *midtempo, very much carnival sound with lots of random noises. 16. 3:33 ***long intro, midtempo militant riddim about revolution. 17. 4:23 **midtempo, lots of percussion. I think the music is telling you to dance. Just a guess… 18. 4:17 ***midtempo booty shaker, militant and a bit menacing and yet tons of fun. CD 2: 1. 6:17 **midtempo, upliftical riddim. Some African influence. 2. 5:28 **downtempo, nice bounce, interesting vocals. 3. 6:28 **midtempo, big vocals, very electronic-sounding beat. 4. 1:42 *fun bit of filler, blockbuster movie vibes. 5. 4:18 **downtempo reggae riddim with a lot of bounce, religious lyrics but still tough. 6. 4:31 ***somewhat uptempo, celebratory vibes, dream of African warrior. 7. 3:46 **slinky midtempo wiggle, religious “read the Bible” lyrics. 8. 5:53 *sort of a smooth jazz groove, downtempo beat. Strange ending. 9. 5:18 ****great midtempo hip hop with killer riddim, great lyrics. 10. 5:02 acoutic guitar, pretty vocals, strings. Some religion, but nice message, terribly sweet. 11. 4:30 **downtempo reggae beat with steel drum, pretty vocals. 12. 5:27 sweet mellow midtempo hip hop with some female vocals. 13. 4:40 ***(bonus track - No Way No How) – minor FCC (bastards), strong midtempo bounce, militant vibes. | ||
