Funkin Matt - Forever Yellow

Nasty Norwegian Funkin Matt probably has some of the freshest sound out there.

And probably one of the most memorable names too.

In this case, it's a take on the increasingly popular “Kettama” style house (I genuinely don’t know what they call it lmao).

As one of the founding artists in the Future House (remember that? lol) he was able to bring that old sound into what could be one of the hottest genres of the 2020s.

And look, this guy has been in the game for almost 20 years. He’s experimented so much while building his signature sound that you can’t help but respect him.

One of those artists who tests things and pushes for evolution.

It’s a very unique-sounding song all things considered. For some sophisticated listeners it might sound “dated” but I think that gives it a lot more charm.

This also stands out against all the people who have shamelessly ripped the style without adding anything meaningful.

Goes to show what is possible when there is passion and love in the game.

Njoy.

💭 Quick Drivel

Some’s crazy to me is how many genres have risen and died in the past 6 years.

Like looking back at it, its kinda baffling how much the industry has changed genre wise.

This is all based on observations but its like for every genre that rises another one collapses.

The world has a funny way of keeping itself balanced on all fronts.

It’s a bit schizophrenic to say, but just observing how nature operates gives a pretty good mirror on how things inevitably go.

Anyway, I love that part about the genre as a whole. It keeps things fresh, not “new” necessarily, but it definitely pushes for constant growth and exploration.

And then, once all that growth and exploration is exhausted, fresh minds come explore old sounds and it creates a renaissance cycle. (Which is what is happening to electropop)

You could say it applies to any musical genre, but I don’t think there’s this constant invention of things going on anywhere else.

Especially subgenres appearing and dissapearing overnight lmao.

In any case, despite the slow and “boring” release year, I’m still optimisitc about the genre as a whole.

Let’s see how it goes!
