Why do we like this?
A friend suggested I check out Emancipator's Soon It Will Be Cold Enough a few months back, but I put it on the back-burner until recently. While browsing my feeds, I came across a song from the album that really hit the spot. Emancipator or Douglas Appling's chilled-back, trip hop beats are steadily growing on me. I may not be an expert on the trip hop scene, but producers like this are moving me in the right direction.
The song that I mentioned above, as you probably figured out, is First Snow. Like a lot of the music I listen to, this song isn't just for listening fun but seems to have a deeper meaning (yes, even without words). Another aspect I like about Appling's music is how he switches up the tone in the middle of the track "“ a good example is at 3:00 in First Snow "“ similar to what DJ Frane does. - Silence No Good
