The Afro Nick – Get There Before Noon (LA mix)
“Get there before noon (LA mix)” by The Afro Nick creates an unusual combination of indie and garage rock, with an experimental edge. The song begins with minimalist electronic sounds that create an atmosphere, emphasized by complicated digital “bubbling” sounds. It’s not long until a rough electric guitar takes center stage, creating a retro atmosphere and providing the song with raw, garage-inspired vibe. The vocals have an enthusiastic, nevertheless nostalgic tone that recalls early ’80s indie music with an air of punk rawness. The performance and somewhat raw sound of the voice provide authenticity, connecting the listener to the song’s concept of independence. The words “All you have to do is get there before noon,” that interact with an air of anxiety and a desire to enjoy the moment, have a genuine tone. While the voice effects are minor, little more experimentation to match the electronic undercurrent might improve the track’s atmosphere. The lyrics address a common fight for distinction in the face of cultural influences, with lines like “They try to say what to do” showing a desire to be free and live in the present rather than the past. The repeating of the line “I might be insane” adds a rebellious edge to the narrative, emphasizing the strong mood. Overall, “Get There Before Noon” is a piece that combines rough guitars with a lo-fi electronic background, supported by philosophical lyrics that represent both sensitivity and courage.
