Q2mix - Step Up the Stream
Fair warning, the music you are about to hit play on is highly infectious and addictive. Q2mix is unafraid of bold beats in Step Up the Stream, their latest number. Unlike most music, it is hard to recognize their music as experimental because of how precise each note is. It seems as though it is placed there with a distinct purpose in the larger scheme of not just the song but the world itself. As soon as the steady techno beats begin, you are zapped into the music; the music makes you acutely aware of the world. It draws you in, only to wake up your consciousness. The track is slow to start; the drum-like beats breathe life into the number. Initially, it is as though you can pick up on a faint pulse. Before you know it, the song has taken flight and swirls all around. Of course it is dance music, but the music feels like a caged bird set free, and it is eager to explore the world. Step Up the Stream is in no rush, though; it is exquisite. Amidst all this, the song takes time to breathe and swell. The production on the song is exquisite; it isn't easy to achieve clean, sharp, and crisp twists and turns such as Q2mix. A film that mimics the same amount of whiplash and twists and turns, enough to give the viewers whiplash, is Jennifer’s Body; you can imagine the song in the last scene as she levitates in her jail cell. Very rarely do you find musicians who are able to wield techno-pop like a sword attached to the back of their hands, and Q2mix has achieved that. You can see just how brilliant they are with their growing listener base. You can join them too; click on the links attached above.
