Mini-Review: Maethelvin - CS005

Clearly Maethelvin is a composer who strives to have a clean and well put together image and this album really displays the level of professionalism that many other producers should strive for in regards to composition and album artwork. Let's take a deeper look...

The beginning of 'CS005' takes on a chillwave and spacesynth vibe. Sadly the first half of the album doesn't stand out from the myriad of other producers doing the same exact thing although it is cleaner than most producers it still lacks character. However the second half of the album picks up with 'My Favorite TV Show' which brings to mind great spacesynth artists of the 80's and even some of the amazing NES and arcade soundtracks. 'As We Were' is another track of which reminiscent of the some of the best synthpop tracks the scene has been able to produce. If you are looking for perfect driving music and haven't already found your favorite track yet then I highly recommend 'Delight' as one for your sunny days driving with the windows down.

While there are just three tracks that personally stand out I would still recommend this album to any synth fans out there. We can't always expect a producer to come up with an album full of hit tracks and Maelthelvin does a better job as mixing and mastering than most out there. Maethelvin is an amazing producer that has the potential to hit the mark every time so I expect nothing less. Overall have a listen for yourself, let us know what you think, and support the artists you love!
