It's definitely better on headphones than on phone or laptop speakers, but still, there's just not much there apart from the kick and the bass. It's a nice beat but the rest of the sounds just aren't very interesting. I'm growing kind of tired of all the noodling with dusty, distorted "the synth has broken down and fallen down the stairs" kind of sounds. I get they're really into that stuff right now though.

I mean, compare this to singles from any of the early era's and it's not very memorable is it?
