Mechanical Horizon is a creative roller coaster ride
thoroughly enjoyable throughout! Every song features well crafted melodies, which morph seamlessly into creative programming, and solid, powerful rhythms. There’s a lot of rich texture in this release, which never seems to fade after repeated listening. Decoded Feedback are a hard act to review for the simple reason that every time I get a chance to listen to them, someone will inevitably borrow the disc for an extended period of time. Mechanical Horizon is no exception and has been enthusiastically snapped up by fans of Goth, Trance, and Electro genres. There is a perfect balance between Gothic atmosphere and technological prowess allowing the listener to be mesmerized and interested in what is to follow. Mechanical Horizon is an all around energetic, captivating listen, and a very danceable release. The vocals are reminiscent of Carl McCoy without sounding contrived and they suit the atmosphere of the music very well. Marco’s voice is not only expressive but is clear and the lyrics are well conveyed. Mechanical Horizon is one of those rare gems that can be listened to from start to finish and can be enjoyed at home or on the dance floor.
‘Reflect In Silence’ is my overall favorite and my cats would
tend to agree. There is an added bonus in the form of a
video on the disc for the ‘ Relic’ track. Well, what does the
future hold for Decoded Feedback? We have Shockwave
to look forward to in September!
