Synth Single Review: “Wave Shred” by 𝙀𝙙𝙚𝙣 𝙁𝙪𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙚

by Karl Magi

𝙀𝙙𝙚𝙣 𝙁𝙪𝙩𝙪𝙧𝙚’s “Wave Shred” is dense with force and drama. The track comes to life as whispering notes swell and strength gathers around a thumping kick drum, the entire piece surging with power. A guitar cries out with turbocharged force and fiery light while huge underpinnings batter with immense weight. The guitar melody exudes worshipful strength as it calls above a razor-sharp low end. Drums form a sinewy beat while the bass moves with seismic force.

The drums drop away for a moment as the track crescendos with blistering muscle before a synth illuminates the music with reverential power above the crushing foundation below. Seething with intensity, the synths blur into brilliant luminosity while the underlayer becomes a tremendous heartbeat and radiant notes glisten overhead. Once again, the guitar howls, capturing me with striking energy.

The drums recede as immense bass smashes forward and the guitar burns. Arpeggios whirl assertively while the guitar cries with fierce conviction. The underpinnings form a tidal undulation as clean synth notes revolve. Effulgence spills through the music with indomitable nobility before the guitar bursts with plaintive expression and a colliding drumbeat slams ahead. Trembling tones shift alongside the guitar as it leaps out with blazing brilliance and the track finally slips into silence.
