There is something about the song that seems to be making quite a good impression on those hearing it for the first time. The comments on-line have been very positive. This one came out of left field and caught everyone by surprise. However, in typical Major Lazer style the song jumped off with some serious rhythms. "Sound Bang" was written by Machel Montano, Kurtis Wells, Nebula868 and Alex Barnwell.
As you may have noticed from the production notes many talented people were involved with the production of the song including, Major Lazer, Machel Montano, Alex "Kubiyashi" Barnwell, Kurtis "London Future" Wells. Now everyone can sleep in peace knowing that Machel is not asleep and is paying attention that Bunji kid! This is not just new music coming from Machel Montano produced by Major Lazer, this is damn good music coming from Machel Montano and Major Lazer. As with everything in life and music, this one may or may not resonate well with you however, this is Machel Montano HD and the very popular Major Lazer thinking, acting and creating something outside the box! They have every intention to mash up the place... I listened to this song several times and each time I found something different to like.
OK, I have to admit it... the more I listen to the song the better it sounds. This is not just any ordinary production. It does not follow the traditional rule for festival music. It deceptively slows down the vibe then has you jumping out of your skin with some really infectious vibes... OK, I am a believer! From the introduction to the crazy rave musical style and everything in-between - I am a believer!
