If anyone hasn't heard it it's at http://www.myspace.com/arilbrikha It has a similar chord progression, but not the same. Not a bad track but Aril's in danger of being embraced by the progressive DJs for stuff like this. Maybe Salsa and Dickweed will pick up on it.
I kept my mouth shut the first time around ... but ... seriously. That chord progression, in whatever variation, is not something I want to hear in a techno track, especially on a weak sounding synth sound. Maybe in some pseudo-GangOfFour discopunk hipster version with lots of guitar and silly lyrics making fun of dance parties I could handle it. But I can't listen to it without laughing. I don't know what to call it, prog, trance, whatever, but I can't even listen to the whole thing in one sitting. Every time I hear that chord progression, it reminds of me of early 90's rave music, and also "Good Vibrations" by Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch, and Haddaway "What Is Love". It's the ultimate dance party anthem chord progression. Kind of like the Louie Louie chord progression was for rock bands of days gone by. As far as Swedish music, I'll take new Adam Beyer and Par Grindvik any day over this Aril track. ~David
