Rabbits Wear Boots – No Style No Rules (Album – 3rioart)
Genre/Influences: Dark-Techno, Tribal-Dance.
Format: Digital, CD.
Background/Info: Two years after the surprising debut-album “Transhuman Dystopia” we get new work from Rabbits Wear Boots. This project is the ‘dance’ version of Hybryds, the legendary Belgian Tribal/Ritual/Industrial project by Sandy Nijs aka ‘Magthea’.
Content: All I can say is that the new work moves on from where “Transhuman Dystopia” stopped; pure Dance energy mixing different Techno-driven elements together. From Dark-Techno to Psy-Trance to Minimal-Techno and pure Experimental, groovy, passages this work is recovered with multiple spoken samplings featuring passages with mystic, female, chants.
+ + + : What I like in this project is the ‘no nonsense’ attitude; this is pure fun, but also great stuff to dance on. It sounds diversified so in the end it’s rather difficult considering it has been all composed by the same musician. I like the mystic side of “Artificial Cybergenic” but also the powerful “Bright Future” driven by a solid, and somewhat EBM bass line.
– – – : The work is maybe a bit too versatile but honestly, I don’t care.. and as the title indicates: “No Style No Rules’!
Conclusion: If you’re not into Techno music Rabbits Wear Boots gone make you love it!
Best songs: “Artificial Cybergenic”, “Bright Future”, “Deep Dark”.
