One listen.

This song does tension well. Seems like it doesn’t at first, but as it progresses it becomes more obvious. Not sure I got that across, but I got a lot of words that cover the song well out, so I think I did well.

Underworld’s “Glam Bucket” is from Oblivion with Bells.

I hope you enjoy.

Percussion ringing and looping, ringing into itself. Harmonious, almost. Kind of. Other beeps and boops here and there, ringing out. A bassy sound comes in, forming melody, and a sort of warping soon forms and rises around the sounds.

More and more sound comes in, filling space, filling the gaps, but it feels spacious. This doesn’t feel crowded, and it might be due to how low-key the percussion is. Other forms appear here and there, bringing in their own take on the main melody, building on it, becoming subsumed.

There’s a gentle tension here, and it seems the idea is alternations of a theme. And it stays gentle until some more prominent sounds come into play. These pulsing sounds – among others – come in, keep an idea of the melody feeling more like a vague memory whilst keeping it there, throbbing, brightening, becoming more intense. They grip and one in particular keeps becoming more so itself before going back to almost nothing, then rising again once more.

This sound rises and rises whilst others disappear from view. It keeps building, and the space becomes less gentle and more intense once more. It keeps going, then suddenly disappears and the main frame is more obvious once more, with broken sounds following it, and what is left fades out and the song ends.
