Steven Stevens 88 - Rhythm of the Universe
Dance/Electronica, Euphoric-Hardstyle, Rawstyle
Oldenburg, Germany
Overall Impression: Calling on the cosmic nature of mortal existence, Steven Stevens 88 delivers the massively impactful original Hardstyle odyssey, "Rhythm of the Universe"! Celestial synth arpeggios dance deftly over a thunderous rhythmic pulse as Steven Stevens 88 masterfully weaves together soul-searching pads and brilliantly aggressive percussion to capture the astronomical scope of the human experience in relation to the underlying and overarching "Rhythm of the Universe"!
Strongest Point(s): The attention to detail on display in "Rhythm of the Universe" goes a long way towards granting the track its resultant scope and gravity! Each sound employed in the experience feels intentionally selected and well-edited to contribute to an overall sense of cohesion and blend - combining the sweetly ethereal and brutally pointed in a way that mirrors the universe's own capacity for duality. Furthermore, not a moment passes in stagnancy as Steven Stevens 88 meticulously crafts each transition and melodic passage to reflect a dynamic sense of growth and decay. The inclusion of seemingly more or less than human vocals for the lyrical exposition suits the sound and style brilliantly as well - allowing the listener to feel as though they're being escorted on a journey of interstellar self-discovery.
Target Audience Appeal: Fans of the Hardstyle genre or adventurous Electronica listeners will find themselves enamored with the soundscape that Steven Stevens 88 has crafted in "Rhythm of the Universe" while the cosmic theme and existential underpinnings of the experience hold the potential to resonate among a wildly diverse audience! "Rhythm of the Universe" is as perfect for journeys of personal reflection and relaxation as it is for party playlists in the realm of Hardstyle EDM and adjacent genres. - Jon W.
