I, Useless’ Out of this is an interesting and unique track that ties together electronic and alternative styles into a slinky, dreamy effort. The distinct sides to the track – the more ethereal vocals and the chunky bass lines – are lashed together by an on-point percussion. The resulting automata is something that has a tremendously deep instrumentation and an impactful emotionality. Fans of Owl City and the Flobots will find something to appreciate during Out of this. We were quite pleased in I, Useless’ ability to create something refreshing and fun, fully distinct while building off of a deep music tradition.
