Local Review: Aaron Cole – Aorotica

Aaron Cole
Aarotica

Aaron Cole = The Prodigy + Clover

 

With Aarotica, Aaron Cole, who has been involved in local projects for over a decade, blends repetitive electronic beats with dub and drum and bass with soft alt-rock and world music, resulting in an infectious dance mix for a party of monstrous proportions, or maybe just something to lose yourself in while soaking in Calgon. “Yesterday’s Darling” is the best track due to the great beats, followed closely by “Seduction,” “Bite Me” and The Prodigy-ish “On Drugz.” Gritty is better than pretty.
