Page 6 ARTS & LIFE The Clarion \ Apr. 11, 2008 Spring Singles that are Bloomin' by David Ulloa Staff Writer “Tenderoni”- Al-P Remix Being the other half of the sonic voyage of MSTRKRFT says enough about Al-P, but with this single released and only crafted by the lone mixer says a lot more. The crunches, beats, and overall splicing of lyrics makes this single even better than the Chromeo version. This is definitely a crowd pleaser, but also a headphones delight. “Shoulda Known”- Atmosphere Previous to this single. Atmosphere’s hip-hop techniques have been somewhat questionable. This song is genuinely taking a different route into achieving something less bumpy and more groovy. The flows are gentle and the throwback bass- hum is right on with precision. If you enjoy Aesop Rock’s degenerate style of rapping to a slow beat then this will suit your fancy. “Bounee”(featN.O.R.E.)- MSTRKFT The letting go of MSTRKRFT’s original dance music ethic could possibly be evident with this song, but let’s not make any assumptions until the new record comes out. Anyways, this single markets more towards the poppy/thrash sound. With the inclu sion of N.O.R.E’s rhymes and swagger, the duo are throwing an agreeable monkey wrench into their creative ways. Like the song states “ All I do is party”, take it from them and get down with it. “Next of Kin”- Surldn Surkin has a brilliant way with combining several styles of music into one definite head- bouncer of a song. This epic dance-off, starts out roller rink worthy with ascending synths that burst into a house pulse that thrives off the mega build up. This rollercoaster of a song goes through light phases of funk and into 80’s dance glory. Daft Punk should really be worried about this sound getting heavy and dope amongst mutual fans; it could be the start of a new robot revolution. Surkin will release their full length album by the fall. Are you going to be in Brevard for l\/lemoriai Day weeliend, May 24 & 25?
