it is very nice yes. And catchy as hell! On that track there is really no difference between the beats and the melody... the sounds you hear are both beats and melody at the same time.

this track was the first plaid track i heard, on john peel, and i fucking loved it. i was fortunate enough to be taping it, and listened to this track many times over. i then went and bought double figure. spokes was dissapointing, but seeing them live restored my faith.. all thanks to mfaus..... :)

alright, you asked for it :)
the beginning is just pretty uninteresting granulated and pitch shifted sound that are barely enjoyable to me, it just showed lack of coming up with anything better on their part--but its just a beginning, so at that point when i heard it the first time i was still expecting some awesomness.
then the drum lines themselves come in which are horribly akward and not even that well made, and again it just sounds like uninteresting granulated sloppy drums, accompanied by an equally weak synth line that has no backbone to it. at this point i went "well, hopfully it picks up"
it didnt. when the song "kicks into high gear", its rather oldschool sounding i guess. a lot of "noise" hi hats flutter about but manage to make the song (to me) sound nausiatingly repetative. the kick drums and snares offer no depth whatsoever, they are just very static, and bare minimum. this is not always a bad thing, but in the case of mfaus it just shoots itself in the foot. the acid synthlines that come in, although they arent terrible (even though they are preset synth sound you find on every VST instrument known to man), still fails to offer any sort of interesting melodic progression or depth that is often used in most plaid songs. it just repeats itself and builds upon nothing with absolutely no variety.
the song tries to save itself towards the end with some degree, adding some more melodic layers on the top that's quite good and add a good amouth of depth (finally), but by the time it reaches that point i just stopped caring all together due to the horribly bland and mediocre "oldschool" sounding stuff that's before it. the distortion at the end is well good though.
and thats why i guess! course im being really harsh on it, but you asked so, there you have it :)

most of the time when i hear something i like or don't like i dont need to go into over explanitive reasons or anything, but its not hard for me to get into that either.
but yeah, its cool that you guys dig the song, no problems. each to their own
