"I hate dubstep, this is great!"
Im here cuz theres three pages...
Its not horrible, but its not that exceptional technically or stylistically really, imo. There is not enough attention paid to the mix or to empty space. Or, to what the track "is", aesthetically.
Forgive me for not just appreciating that a youngster did something 'oddball'.
He needs another ten tracks before Id make a call...
This track of his is much more savvy style wise imo-

In my mind, the younger a musician is the more points they get for having technical ability, and the less points they lose for any aesthetic oddities. A youngster is expected to maybe be lacking in training, but full of wild inspiration. If they display some technical ability, while showing aesthetic maturity they are beyond their years.
If a 16 year old is trying to copy their fav track, fine, they dont know any better, theyre learning, etc.
If they pull it off well, thats exceptional.
If they come up with their own style, and pull that off with technical skill, well thats a rare genius.
So this track in the OP, to me, is technically average. Needs ten EQs.
Stylistically, its missing a mark, imo. I say that from an EDM point of view.
So it can be appreciated for being 'avante garde' work from a young talent, or it can be seen as immature experimentation. Our choice I guess.
(Sorry for the negative ranting post. This Daft Punk album is slowly making rage.)
