Despite a chord pattern that never really changes throughout the song, this piece manages to keep just interesting and innovative enough to keep you listening. iCy brings in a constant flow of rhythms over the same general melodies, and never gets permanently attached to anything but his immovable drumbeat, and his panning blip drones. He doesn't clutter up the piece with anything but the essentials, which keeps it open and just a little bit this side of dark blue. The ending comes quickly, but he manages to cut out the parts in sequence so that it doesn't suddenly stop, leaving you hanging. Overall, something with a good groove to it, getting established early, and carrying throughout the length of the song. Near-perfect samples here, supporting the mood without any perceptible flaws. Tuned, timed, and balanced to a T, but nothing really jumps out as anything special. If he had used a little bit of innovation, he could have made this good piece into a great piece, but it stands well-constructed as it is.
