Axi the Axolotl just released their latest electronic piece “Harter Süßkram” this July 4. This is a delightful, light-hearted and infectious piece of electronic music created on the Amiga with ProTracker that blends catchy melodies with a playful narrative.
“Harter Süßkram” opens with a captivating vocal performance, where a delicate voice draws listeners into the whimsical world of the track. The underlying music is a perfect complement to the vocals, with shimmering immersive music creating an enchanting atmosphere. Her voice soon soars after her delivery gets more intense. Her voice comes front and center as she tells the story of Axi with more vivacious alacrity.
The underlying shimmering music introduces beats as they fall harder, and pulsating synths join, creating a vibrant atmosphere. The arrangement is dynamic, with moments of build-up and release keeping the listener engaged throughout the song. The song’s infectious rhythm is a testament to the producer’s skill in crafting catchy and memorable melodies.
The lyrics, while simple, are effective in telling the story of Axi the Axolotl and their love for sweets. The repetitive chorus is a clever device that reinforces the song’s central theme, making it instantly memorable. It’s like a children’s song in the way it holds the moral of how too much sweets can harm you. The playful tone of the lyrics adds to the overall charm of the track.
“Harter Süßkram”’s success lies in its ability to appeal to a wide audience. Children will undoubtedly be drawn to the playful and catchy track, while adults will appreciate its danceability and production values.
