Play 90 second soundbite of 'Submission' @ 'CD quality'
Tenek bring pop sensibility to the electro table with 'Submission'; it's a punchy, hard-driven song rammed with sonic whines, dark grooves, industrial noise and all kinds of techno wizardry. 'Submission' is quite obviously a great track for the specialist dancefloor but, unlike most of their contemporaries, Tenek give their song a massive dose of pop likeability that takes 'Submission' to another level altogether; no longer just a club-scene song but now a real contender for full-blown chart success in the open market.
'Submission' works on every level really; it's got Pet Shop Boys-esque instant appeal and Gary Numan oomph but without a hint of retro anywhere - quite a combination, quite a single!
Now, regular readers will know of my dislike of 'remixes'! Yes, you guessed it - like that well know breakfast cereal 'Submission' comes in six varieties, six remixes, six variations on a theme. No matter how good the title song is, I don't like all the remixes no matter how damn good they may be!! Why not just do one more track, something different to show a depth of writing skills? That said (again!), 'Submission' by Tenek is an impressive pop song no matter what its genre nuances might be. Commercial all-day-long 'Submission' by Tenek, as a stand-alone song gets, the job done in radio-friendly style - must be a winner surely!!
