Back again with our Friday feature Critical Metrics track. This week it's Poni Hoax's Budapest. This is one of those songs that I play over and over while hacking away at work. I mostly play it over and over because I can't get four minutes uninterruped and I need to hear this song all the way through. Incredibly sophisticated lyrics and tumbing bass makes this track great for coding or driving. AP's review sums it up best: “Built on a pulsing electronic bass line and moved along by an increasingly dramatic arrangement, "Budapest" sounds like an entire spy thriller condensed into one five minute dance floor epic, with its swelling electronic strings and crashing guitars amping up the dramatic tension, and the distinct, urgent voice of guest vocalist Olga Kouklaki providing an additional jolt of eroticism and exoticism.”
An awesome addition to the discerning bachelor's playlist. Check out their MySpace page for more.
