Errors // Come Down With Me
Errors - Come Down With Me.
Errors second record is a whirlwind of instrumental electro and epic technical heights. Recorded in a bunker-space called ‘The Freezer’ by mainly themselves, Come Down With Me reveals itself as an insular, erratic twitch, slowly forcing you to forget all that passive sing along shit, and completely loose yourself in a mass of hooks and textured bleeps. But don’t expect nothing cheery and uplifting. They’re Scottish, have toured with Mogwai, and as I said, recorded this album in a dank, depressing bunker. And so half way through, on ‘The Erskine Bridge’, bucket loads of long, emotional noise pours in the hatches, and everything seems to go into slow motion for a while, involuntarily back-grounding itself. This kind of affects the latter half of the album; whilst I am tapping my foot, I’m thinking about something else. ‘Jolomo’ picks it up again a bit, but it just all gets a bit too much. I start to feel like I’m in that bunker, spacing out and obsessing over tiny thoughts that don’t even matter. However, the whole album is smothered in moody dance bass lines and finger-cracking glitches that punctuate ultimate dance music. This is for you, person who hates David Guetta (except that Kelly Rowland one), but still wants to dance really really REALLY hard. Get wasted and listen to this LOUD, allowing room for flailing arms, stamping legs, and serious head-swaying moments.
