Who needs blurbs when we have onomatopoeia?

[6.73]Kat Stevens: Pleasant bibble bookended on the frequency spectrum by ’70s-claymation-series piccolo (WHEEDLEEE!) at one end and container ship foghorn (PAAARP!) at the other.

Scott Mildenhall: VWOM. VWOM. VWOMVWOMVWOMVWOMVWOM. VWOM. VWOM. VWOM… VWOM. VWOM. VWOMVWOMVWOMVWOMVWOM. VWOM. VWOM. VWOM. VWOMVWOMVWOMVWUDUHVWOM. Something like that anyway.

Thomas Inskeep: I assume that Watermät is specifically referencing “Bullitt,” the 1968 Steve McQueen car-chase-happy film, since this has a very propulsive “Autobahn 2014” feel to it, complete with a near-semi-airhorn effect. Music to drive too fast to.

Katherine St Asaph: “Bullit” is all about that P-Wing piccolo and galumphing underbelly. It’s another cut from the hypothetical stop-motion kids’-whimsy soundtrack that’d also contain “Inspector Norse,” and the imagined nostalgia is so strong I fear that with another listen A. O. Scott is going to grab me by the empty wallet and scold me for the death of my adulthood, but fuck it: it’d be cool if all music sounded like this.

Micha Cavaseno: I wanted to say something about how house really is exhausting when it becomes in vogue, but that synth’s bullying is so adept that I’ve thrown myself into my own locker. Well done lads.

Luisa Lopez: Halfway through I knew I didn’t like it, or thought I didn’t. Kept coming back anyway, to listen closer to that whistling. Now it’s half an hour later and I can’t stop.

Brad Shoup: I can listen to a good melody an absurd amount of times in a row, and that Motown piccolo line is mangled into a pleasing shape. Yeah, it’s fitted over an HVAC system, but I can deal.

Anthony Easton: The rattling percussion and the abstracted sounds of speed destabilize a track that could have been thought of as sweet and kind of lovely. It’s a neat trick.

Patrick St. Michel: “Bullit” is a good dash of tropical vibes, and that flute sample is really nice, but it really doesn’t go anywhere beyond being “summery.” Which is fine enough, but I could also just turn on poolside.fm.

Iain Mew: With its balance of burbling synths and woodwind samples, “Bullit” is a lot like The Chemical Brothers’ “The Golden Path.” And it gets across as cinematic a journey without even needing any rambling narration from Wayne Coyne, which these days has to be a plus.

Mark Sinker: For a would-be summer anthem, I kind of love how the main sounds all seem blurred and off-centre and and rusted and melancholy: EPIC AUTUMNAL more like. But this is the mood I’m currently set to be in whatever gets played at me. THOUSAND YARD GLAZED DISCO STARE POWERS ON…
