Mind you, the title of the sophomore album from Baauer isn’t really in reference to planet Earth - rather, it’s a loose concept record that revolves around a new world appearing within sight of ours.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfter some cinematic synth work, opening cut \u003ci\u003ePlanck\u003c\/i\u003e snaps into the kind of ground-shaking hip hop beat that has brought Baauer so many comparisons to TNGHT and Rustie down the years. \u003ci\u003eGroup\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003ePizzawala\u003c\/i\u003e both do something similar, the latter while running at a skittering halftime.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHowever, while a commitment to maximalist dance sounds is the guiding principle for Baauer once again here, this aesthetic proves to be pretty elastic in terms of genres and beat patterns. \u003ci\u003eYehoo\u003c\/i\u003e, for instance, has the drive of hard drum and possibly also Batida and these styles are also in the mix on \u003ci\u003eReacupdontstop\u003c\/i\u003e. Meanwhile Baauer goes harder than ever on the mid-section one-two of \u003ci\u003eHot 44\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eAether \u003c\/i\u003e- while the former features some juddering techno rhythms sampling Headstrong Records producer Randomer, the latter’s monstrous bass and crashing breakbeats sound like a long lost joint from The Prodigy’s golden age. \u003ci\u003eHome\u003c\/i\u003e towards the end of the record, also features vocals from Manchester’s Bipolar Sunshine as well as co-production from Hudson Mohawke.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lucky Me","offers":[{"title":"CD","offer_id":50498881290571,"sku":"1096856","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/82372254-4a76-4bea-b7a3-6f931e1737c7_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727760536","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/fr\/products\/planet-s-mad","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
