Returning from his artistic slumber,
Geordie Breakbeat Heartbeat re-instates his fantastic meld of wide-ranging electronic
genres and sweetly melancholic melodies. Borrowing influences from a
staggeringly diverse amount of sources, BBHB’s electro-chiptune contains hooks
and enough beats to see you through the coming winter.
The atmospheres and styles change
constantly in ’22:06’, BBHB’s most varied work to date, one minute the
four-to-the-floor euphoric splendour of ‘Send Me To Sleep’, the next the slow
and soft touch of ‘The Skies I’, and then later the chipbreak mayhem of ‘Radio’.
Impressively though, this release sounds cohesively strong, linking all the
tracks with not style but instead the very distinct melodic stylings present
within this music.
The diversity of instrumentation is
also something of note, featuring strings, pianos, guitar-like tones and
multiple different electronic timbres. All of this equates to a thoroughly consistent
and refreshingly vibrant and varied 12 tracks that never feels forced or
difficult to listen to. Breakbeat Heartbeat has managed to create another blindingly
addictive chip-pop opus, and we’re very glad to be giving it to you!
