Motion Trap- PALEBLUEDOT
by Tim Wenger
Psych-rock is a fast-growing genre here in Denver, and Motion Trap is one of the bands leading the charge. Stepping away from the heavy indie-rock influence that many of these bands draw from, Motion Trap incorporates strong elements of both hip-hop and electronica that make their debut record PALEBLUEDOT one of the year’s most intriguing releases.
Trippy, danceable undertones stand out in each track, although in different ways. Tracks like “DIA” and “Like A Dream” use electronica to paint an emotional picture while “Less Is More” and “Fresh Start” feature guest emcees and are more lyrically focused. The album is held together through strong beats and an overall upbeat feel that will appeal to fans of everything from mainstream rock to dubstep.
