Basshunter, Jonas Erik Altberg is a Swedish DJ has recently made a presence in the UK after releasing a number of songs from his UK debut album Now YOu're Gone and is extremely popular with the younger generation and those like myself that wanted to listen to something that took them back to their younger clubbing days.
I was curious to listen to this album, although I am probably a little too old now for this kind of music, years ago I quite liked the tracks from Ultrabeat, although they do become extremely annoying and the lyrics are rather dire, in comparison to Ultrabeat I thought Basshunter were going to be along the same lines.
Having released two tracks in the UK, which have charted in the positions of 1 and 2 during 2007 and 2008, Basshunter is particurly popular in his home country and neighbouring countries of Norway, Denmark, the Netherlands, who are very much into the electronica dance music anyway and you find that many of these kind of artists come from these countries anyway.
The album itself I think displays that he is not English and struggles a little bit with the English language, or should I say that these kind of artist have problems with lyrics full stop. The album is full of catchy beats and are great for the clubs of today. However it is quite obvious that he can not sing under any circumstances. Although the electronica beats vary track to track which gives it that like bit of variation, the song words are very similar and I could cringe the amount of times that you hear the word smile withi every track.
Track Listing
- Now YOu're Gone - All I Ever Wanted - Please Don't Go - I Miss You - Angel in the Night - In Her Eyes - Love You More - Camilla - Dream Girl - I Can Walk on Water - I'm Your BassCreator - Russia Privjet - Boten Anna - Dota - Now YOu're Gone - All I Ever Wanted - Welcome to the Rainbow - Hardstyle Drops
On a similar style as Scooter, who also come from Europe I found this album likeable when it comes to the beats of the tracks, however lyrics are completely and utterly attrocious. Good for the younger, much younger than me generation, but not for us fun loving adults that want to capture a little bit of our youth back.
e makes for some compelling reading. He started out making tunes on basic equipment in his bedroom and putting them out via the Internet. After releasing his debut album...
