Overall, I am filled with positive feelings towards Boys Noize's sophomore album, Power. On a good note, he has really branched out from his distorto-techno Oi Oi Oi days. Rather, tracks such as Heart and Gax bring out a melodic and softer side of Boys Noize. But don't get me wrong, he still kills it with Jeffer and Starter, true products of the German techno scene. Overall, Power has much more variety and dynamics than Oi Oi Oi; embodying analogue synth patches, focusing on track development, funky production style, and even some harmonic growth (kudos on those dissonances, Mr. Ridhaon). On the downside, Power is lacking any anthemic bangers, like his previous &Down and Don't Believe The Hype. At least on this album he skips out on using that fucking corny vocodor!
