Like much of <strong>Aphex Twin<\/strong>&#8216;s early work, Bad Loop&#8217;s tracks are beat-driven, laden with kick-drums and often utilizing glitchy and skittering percussion like on the playful <em>Kauniit Ihmiset<\/em>. The synths, meanwhile, provide an eerie, celestial undercurrent that <strong>R\u00f6yksopp<\/strong> would be proud of. The result, at the end, is a slick and glossy mix of electronica that is both meditative and accessible. <em>Nio<\/em>, as soon as it begins, surrounds us with its vibrant layers of synths, before the catchy bassline kicks in. <em>Eri Valeire<\/em>, meanwhile, develops around a sleek, futuristic beat. Whether at a a late-night underground club party or a Sunday drive through the countryside, Luo is a record that won&#8217;t disappoint you.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Lc8w67-LB9A\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><strong>Favorite Tracks:<\/strong> <em>Eri Valeire<\/em>, <em>Kauniit Ihmiset<\/em>, <em>Mmin<\/em><br \/>\n1.
