Review:
A lot of people nowadays record music from home or from some tiny
studio that was once a home, and with a setup like this the results
can be varied. Fortunately for the band M.E., the results are pretty
darn good.
M.E. is categorized as “trip hop,” which puts them in the sonic ranks
of M83, Panda Riot, and Portishead. Despite the previously mentioned
simple recording setup, they have achieved a good, clean sound–a
mixture of dreamy synths, vocals, and electric guitar.
The standout favorite is definitely “Taking Off My Pants”–catchy
female vocals backed by an up-tempo beat. “Neubloppen” is another song
definitely worth a listen; this time with male vocals and foot tapping
rhythm.
M.E. also offers a few instrumental songs, which don’t hold interest
as well as their vocal-based songs, but “greaslide” is still a fun
jazzy piece.
Overall this is a band worth listening to, with “Taking Off My Pants”
being a song that should be downloaded and kept on repeat.
