Back on the Riotvan with the third installment already, it is the ever on point https://soundcloud.com/llewellynmusic, still being the more extroverted Synth/Wave/NeoDisco-alter ego of Lake People - that just as a minor gloss for those who've been living under a rock over the last years. On "These Days" we see him further elaborate his distinctive signature sound, more than ever brimming with confidence and splendour.
Exhibit A goes by the name "These Days (Don't Make Me Wait)" and instantly wins over the hearts of listeners and dancers alike by its driving, yet utmost elegant appearance. A slapping beat and dream-like pads get played about by a delightful piano improvisation and refined by amazement-triggering adlibs and vocal-excerpts. There you have it: the Indie-Dance-hymn of the season, bathing open air floors everywhere in streams of joy and collective rapture.
Then there is "I Wish I Could Have Seen It All" that in all detail emphasizes on classy Italo Disco-leanings, without compromising on current standards of production craftsmanship and all the requirements to get a crowd moving. That irresistible Funk driven synthbass just being one of them.
Closing things off, it's "Fleshed Out", presenting hissy snares, hi-hat-teasing plus a slightly off-beat arrangement, introducing a stardust powdered lead arpeggio synth and a plain compelling boost of energy and driving dynamic.
