aries delivers two more solid tracks on the deluxe edition of his 2019 album welcome home, featuring a production style that mirrors an old sound, but is far more polished and makes a great addition to the original, which i also enjoyed quite a bit.
the deluxe edition features “90 DAYS,” whose high-pitched muffled synth lead, loud plucked guitars, and deep booming 808 bass sounds great with aries’ voice on this track. the drum arrangement also features some interesting choices as well, which is very much like aries production-wise. but the monotonous looping guitar gets boring after a while, and while it isn’t bad sonically, it does beg for some kind of switch up of drums or instrument.
rating: 6/10
it also features “FOREVER,“ a great track which features a mix of 808 and live bass, heavily processed live piano, and perfect use of chopped drum loops, stemmed trap beats, and live drums. aries also shows off some really cool vocal processing choices right before the second verse on here, which is nothing like nothing i’ve ever heard from him before. overall, it is an excellent closer to an already decent set of songs.
rating: 8/10
