Waverine - Blinded By The Sun (2011)


8.7

/Synth pop, Acid pop, Electro pop, New Wave, Electronic pop/

Comment: Waverine is a producer from Gelderland, the Netherlands who released his seventh album so far. He already started off with sonic deeds in the mid of 90`s being then known as aegis, though. However, the recent Waverine is a catchy flow of electronic pop and synth pop (and some breakbeats), offering lots of gears and hooks in the songs with huge potential. If you would be interested in principal acknowledgement of is he either an old school dude or not, I would prefer the first possibility. Not only new wave but also some post-punk-ish glimpses and Kraftwerk-lighted shards can be found from this field. Moreover, one striking ballad wrapped up into a dark-hued veil is represented here. The issue is made in liaison with the poet Daniel Gilbert, who has written most of the lyrics. My heart-throb is Heat, which is a depth-reaching electro-driven ass.
