Hk47 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Just got this today... It... Wasn't as good as I thought it might be. I hate to say it, but I think Hopkins reached his full potential a few albums ago, and now we're kinda just... Stuck with this sound. Unless something drastic happens and he goes through a major change. =/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest transmisiones ferox Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 I like how he plays with the melody through the album.Really enjoying everything from the first track until COSM. His last piano tracks just don't sound on par with the first half. Overall, it is suprisingly good listen, like it even more than Immunity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richie Sombrero Posted May 26, 2018 Share Posted May 26, 2018 Listening to him for first time. Singularity is awful! Emo trance. Like Muse remixed by Markus Schulz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like Muse remixed by Markus Schulz. lol, that muse comparison is spot on! immunity is better but floating points does a similar thing and with way more elegance imo, shadows ep especially: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But damn, that rhodes near the end needs to calm down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Extralife Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Well I will still say that’s few of the more technoish songs on the first half of immunity hold up when played on a nice sound system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARPA Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 The tracks build up nice but go nowhere, the perfect soundtrack for running on a spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
