Somos el Viento – Exodus
Somos el Viento’s “Exodus” is an exciting ride into the worlds of progressive and post-rock, with an element of cosmic spirituality that attracts listeners into its huge atmosphere. The tune opens suddenly, but quickly reveals a strong, pulsing bass line that drives the song with dimension and energy. At 0:43, spaced-out synthesizers reminding of Ozric Tentacles enter, creating a dreamy, extraterrestrial atmosphere that is fully exciting! The production is impressive, covering the vibe of space rock with an endless, jam-like flow that is simultaneously freeform and well constructed. Although the mix is colorful and polished, a slightly softer touch on the overall volume might increase the dimensions and allow the layers to flow more freely. The guitar work is outstanding, with a Jon Petrucci-inspired style that combines complex, blazing solos with technical skill, providing a thrilling aspect of prog brilliance.
