R+3(at)


            You could say that I have been a little busy but that would be entirely untrue. I not only have done nothing productive in my video game business but I also hosted an extremely unsuccessful concert in which I may as well have been mindlessly typing a review for the one viewer that I have. I do have finals this week but that is unimportant because I could probably pass all of my finals while fighting off a hoard of zombies that have teamed up with ravens who are hell bent on pecking my eyes out. Simply put I’ve been far too lazy to write a review of any of the music that I listen to constantly.
            I have been listening to mostly electronic gibberish these days so I decided to do a review of a DJ, or DJs I guess I should say, that have always amazed me with their musically irrational beats. If you have guessed that I am reviewing Ratatat then hats off to you because the way I put it, the artist could have been any number of new dubstep, house, or electronic dance artists.
            To start my review I am going to say that I truly enjoy their newest album more than the only other album I own, LP3. Of the various oddities off of the latest addition to their collection of instrumental pieces, I definitely enjoy the tracks by the name of “Drugs” and “Neckbrace” the most. As unappealing and abrasive as these titles are, the music behind the names are very appealing to the irregular teen like me, that doesn’t smoke or drink. I feel that the constant heavy beat and hard pounding melody satisfies an instinctual need for heartbeat conforming rhythms which is present in all humans, modern day and before common era humanoids. So to sum it all up if you want something different from the everyday or if you want to be part of the modern underground scene and feel the need to test the waters first, Ratatat is a great place to start.

P.S. SUGGESTIONS NEEDED!
