I was a little disappointed when I first heard this, mostly because the phrase "Balearic soca" gave me expectations of something ridiculously euphoric, but now I love it for what it is. Like, those piano chords are actually really melancholy but at the same time they help elevate the song to greatness.

Tune of the year, beyond a fucking shadow

Yeah it was a good night. Going to work on 2hrs sleep less good but it was all worth it for that moment. Esp because I have no recollection of ever playing or mentioning this track in this guy's presence (although I guess I must have) and as far as I'm aware he's mainly into d&b so it was kinda ridic that he put on EXACTLY the tune I needed at the EXACT right time

lol amazing revive, ty wins
― rob, Monday, 28 October 2013 19:48 (ten years ago) link
i think we can all now conclude that wins talked about this song for thirty minutes solid before this occured

those who liked the melancholy of "Differentology" should also check out "Carnival Tabanca"

Viking-soca?

I like that video though, the spinning crown is awesome.
― MikoMcha, Tuesday, 3 December 2013 06:49 (ten years ago) link
Garlin has a whole thing going on with vikings. His album is called The Viking and other tracks have referenced it too. You can kind of see it in action in the Differentology video:

album is out...interview feature in Fader and he's doing a bunch of US dates
― curmudgeon, Thursday, 28 August 2014 18:34 (nine years ago) link
need to hear this. the tracks that I already know (title track, Carnival Tabanca, Red Light District, Truck on D Road) range from amazing (at this point I listen to Tabanca more often than Differentology) to quite good, though I wish they'd used the original Truck.
― rob, Thursday, 28 August 2014 20:08 (nine years ago) link
I still need to hear it too.
― curmudgeon, Friday, 29 August 2014 16:22 (nine years ago) link
Halfway through the album and it's loads of fun. There's a verse on 'West Indian Jungle' that is quite astounding in both its wordplay and its nerdishness.
