Lucid Dream is a new techno EP from HiMom!!! whose style is a fusion of raw techno and old school trance. It’s a contemporary take on a classic sound, and all four of the tracks would stand out in a modern techno set, as a way to switch up the style.
This is only HiMom!!!’s second official release, so we will jump straight into the tracks, as there isn’t much to know about their previous releases.
We are actually going to start by highlighting the releases last track, “Bring It On,” as it has a slightly different sound from the other productions on the release. It orientates around a breakbeat drum loop and heavy bassline full of sub-bass. The breakdown introduces a bountiful synth riff that adds spine-tingling euphoria, contrasting well with the dark and brutal sound of the main groove.
This review was started in reverse, as the same euphoria that lands in the breakdown of “Bring It On” is a prominent part of the other three tracks on the release. “Come Alive” has a phasing, synth arpeggio and uplifting vocal, powered by driving techno percussion.
“Starlight” has a throbbing groove with a pumping bassline and fluttering melodies stretched over a framework of pounding percussion. “Breathe” is pure bliss, with its soaring pads and electrifying synth stabs underpinned by a hammering kick drum.
This release will certainly get people reaching for the lasers on a dance floor, and “Bring It On” also provides something for those who like their music a little more bass-heavy.
