Music Review: Hudsun

I cannot be satisfied writing this review; Hudsun's music reminds me of a music I heard in a commercial for Younger, and I have not been able to identify the right commercial, song, or artist. It feels like that would be very pertinent, and help give an idea of this music.

I can only try and describe.

It may be a newer style, where there is a lot of synthesizer and electronics, but it is not techno. Instead there is a harsher, more industrial sound. 

In this case, that is well-matched with the videos, created by playing around on the computer, but still not delivering emotionally. I wanted to love the cats in "Medicine", but they don't mean anything.

I do like his most recent release, "Passenger", more than the other songs. Perhaps there is a development in process toward greater depth. Sam Hudson, the person behind the band, seems fairly young, so there should be time for maturation.

In his own words, he says his music is like "being hit in the face with a stale box of cereal". 

I don't think it's that stale, but I also don't think it's that impactful. 

Ideally, it would just need to matter more.
