DAY 26: A SONG THAT YOU CAN PLAY ON AN INSTRUMENT ZOMBIE NATION - “KERNKRAFT 400″ Dance music can be so exciting. It moves as fast as sound technology evolves and the temporal nature of dancefloors mean that the most exciting moments can be just that: fleeting incidences of euphoric rush or thrilling groove, anonymous and generic yet anthemic and powerful. The best dance music is about doing expected things in an unexpected way: be it the rhythm, the bass, the tones, the tempo; whatever it is, if it’s going to drive a crowd wild then it has to do something different. But trance works by a different matrix. Its formula is the very thing that defines it. The subgenre was a commercial force at the turn of the millennium, although by then it had already taken on the worst elements of naff Europop while losing any of the grace and sophistication it had remaining, and even although its relative popularity has waxed and mostly waned since, for a certain generation the tinny snare-driven breakdowns, syncopated basslines and plink-plonk melodies are what springs to mind when thinking of dance music. Its legacy lives on in chart EDM too – where there once was a breakdown there is now a drop, and where there was once a jobbing vocalist there is now a proper pop star or rent-a-rapper in place. Trance is the most boring of all dance music to actually dance to. It’s easy to raise hands during the beatless parts and jump around like a loon when the beats kick back in, but the monotonous one-two bounce basslines don’t produce effective grooves. It is perfect workout music, all rigid beats and predictable structures, but it’s no fun to dance to – there’s no intricacies or unexpectedness, no sense of bump and flex, nothing to make clubbers contort their bodies into shapes. It’s not a style completely without merit: at its most pop, it can actually sound remarkably desolate and desperate; songs like Lasgo’s “Something”, Fragma’s “Toca’s Miracle” and Alice Deejay’s “Better Off Alone” have proper songs at their heart, painting big feelings with broad brushstrokes. It can be obvious but it can also be effective. “Kernkraft 400” is different though. It doesn’t accomplish anything. That monolithic riff might have been carved on the nation’s collective consciousness in the summer of 2000 but it’s basically an arpeggio that anyone can figure out with one hand on a piano keyboard. The beat is a punishing thud and there’s some odd synth percussion and sterile handclaps that practically draw themselves on an Ableton grid, but apart from that there’s nothing else going on. That the beat’s relentless charge is easier to jump to than to dance to is what marks it as a failure. “Kernkraft 400” is all energy and no movement, all drama and no twist, and painfully boring.
