Matt’s Random Video This Week is:
“With A Spirit” by Sound System 009. I know, this is the stupid song everyone puts on their “People Falling Down Funny” or “Best Party Pics” photo and video compilations on You-Tube. It’s 9 minutes long (or longer in the original version) fairly repetitive trance/techno; However, I find this song to be full of variations through each section. There are comprehensive lyrics, several verses in fact, with a refrain/chorus and layer upon layer of ambient instrumentation. I can’t get enough of it. I somehow feel like this song is a link to the future of music. I know, I may be way off base and consider it possible that no souls share my opinion of said work, but there are deeper psyche triggers, I find, in the soothing melodic tones that strike me as rather nostalgic – of what I’m not sure, but nostalgic nonetheless. I hope you enjoy. If not, let me know. Leave a comment, I’d love to hear your opinion!
