som som - “Turn Back The Time”
“Turn Back The Time,” by som som, is a laid back and unusual track that immediately captures the listener’s attention with its relentless groove from the drums and bass. The stripped-back arrangement creates a hypnotic feel to the song. The synth sounds in the verse sections are a nice touch, providing a subtle and soothing layer to the already engaging groove. The cool and relaxed vocal delivery adds to the overall chilled-out vibe of the track.
The real standout moment of the song comes in the chorus section, where the staggered rhythm adds an unexpected twist to the otherwise familiar groove. The addition of guitar in this section helps to elevate it even further, providing a much-needed lift. This section is trippy and I like it.
After the song returns to the relentless groove of verse two, it begins to stutter before one final burst of that awesome chorus. The song’s abrupt ending definitely leaves the listener wanting more… but not in a bad way.
“Turn Back The Time” is a unique and engaging song. The combination of the relentless groove, stripped-back arrangement, and unexpected chorus make it a must-listen for anyone who likes the unusual. And be sure to catch the video:
