Review: Labrinth – Electronic Earth

Electronic Earth is the long awaited and highly anticipated album from the man everyone is talking about… Labrinth.

The buzz and hype around this guy is ridiculous but the Earthquake singer does deserve it because ladies and gentleman, Labrinth has produced hit after hit, whether it be through collaborations with Tinie Tempah and ‘Pass Out’ or solo with ‘Let the Sun Shine’.

From his live performances with Chase and Status, at BBC 1XTRA Live and more recently from supporting Drake on his sold out tours, Labrinth is fast receiving the reputation of being a hypnotic and engaging performer.

Electronic Earth is a beautiful creation, entirely written, composed and produced by Mr. Labrinth himself at his studio in Wood Green, London. A variety of instruments are used throughout, showcasing his talents and his vast ranges in genre. His first album is simply Labrinth personified. “I’m a musical geek.”

Through Electronic Earth’s explosive new sounds, beats and melodies, you can’t help but start moving when you hear these tracks. I got really excited when Earthquake came on and was trying very hard not to start dancing in public because I know nobody wants to see that.

Taking you on a worldwind tour of his imagination, Electronic Earth delivers you on another planet, giving you a little party in your ears.

Not only featuring the much loved tracks of Let the Sun Shine and Earthquake; Electronic Earth also includes future smash hits such as Beneath Your Beautiful featuring Emeli Sande and Sweet Riot as well as an sample updated version and remix of the classic tune, Express Yourself.

With tracks that will blow your mind and others that are so soulfully beautiful, I personally can’t wait to see what this new UK talent comes up with next.
