Vziel Projet Listening List 16: Hooligan Faust - Better Than You

 

Artist: Hooligan Faust
Genre: Avant-Garde Classical
Label: Immoral Basement Records
CAT#: IBR_301
Year: 2017

This was actually the first Hooligan Faust release that I heard, and its a short two track EP. Both tracks on the release are really nice and incredibly diverse, completely changing direction and sound every few bars. At some moments its surprisingly melodic/harmonic, at other moments its an assault of what sounds like 90s PC game SFX, and other times more like a score. As with the alias's "theme", its a lot of out dated and bizarre soundfonts, which gives it a really cool sound (also, more people should experiment with soundfonts, is underrated and fun).
