BALOK PEOPLE – Small Boy Big Heart CD
BALOK PEOPLE
Small Boy Big Heart CD
(MeLAYAN Records)
Finally listened to the CD and i must say i am crushingly disappointed. it’s all home-recorded, midi-driven, cheesy-keyboards, ultra-lite-reggae. the whole thing sounds more like a demo rather than a proper album.
That said, I’m no enemy or home-recording, in fact there may well be a lot of tunes coming out from this very computer very soon. The problem here is that it’s not done very well.
Besides that, a few songs here are on the average side while the rest are basically fillers. None really stands up to be counted. They may sound different with a proper band or presented live I’m sure but on this, they are all looking pretty weak.
