The music begins with a futuristic and dramatic synth start, creating a sci-fi\u00a0atmosphere that is\u00a0modern and strange. When the drums kick in, their raw, rough sound offers a dirty, almost punk-like strength that contrasts well with the synth&#8217;s \u00a0soundscapes. The interaction of these parts creates an exciting groove that is\u00a0danceable. As the song continues, the synths take on a Tangerine Dream-like feel, with lush, atmospheric elements and a strong Krautrock influence. This change contributes to the track&#8217;s sophistication, allowing the listener to move through a soundscape that is supported by the drum\u00a0beat and\u00a0the ethereal synthesizers. Despite its electronic orchestration, the song has a rock-like aggressiveness, providing it an unusual rock\u00a0edge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Commercial Dance Song (singleVersion)\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/hXj2eii5ueA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Conveniens, the collaboration of David Sterling Smith (keyboards and synthesizer) and John Maz (drums and&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":25775,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[15,5],"tags":[4198,2383,290],"class_list":["post-25774","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-electronic-reviews","category-reviews","tag-conveniens","tag-electronica","tag-punk"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25774","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25774"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25774\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":25776,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25774\/revisions\/25776"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25775"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25774"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25774"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25774"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
