RAINMAN - This Is Rainman EP (Review + Free Download)



"Dubsmack resident, Rainman, will be releasing his much awaited new EP, “This Is Rainman”. . . The EP will consist of 5 original tracks from the Vancouver native titled, Me Gusta, Bounce, House Music, Something More, and Rhodes." THEKNWLDG

The EP was released March 9th at Ottawa's Biggest Dubstep Night "Dubsmack" which included a live performance by the man himself. I have been waiting sometime to here the full mastered versions of these songs and they are finally here. The first track off the EP is titled "Me Gusta" and is a Moombahton Maniac. Sawblade sounding synths are pounded into the uttermost catchy percussion topped off with some standard whistles (2012: Out with cowbells, in with the whistles!) Next we have a Progressive sounding track that really grabbed my attention, right off the bat.When I first heard "Bounce" I was kind of expecting a heavier drop, but I was satisfied with the progression of percussion and catchy melodies. 

Then we have a true RAINMAN single with "House Music"! This song takes me back to the earlier days of Sebastians Music like "Tropic Thunder" & "Thunderclap". Fucking love this shit, BRING THAT BEAT BACK!

After that we have "Something More" which has been unofficially released for quite sometime and has become a RAINMAN staple.

Then we have my favorite track off the EP. "Rhodes" really shows the true producing skills this kid processes.  One of the mellowest tracks he's released, infused with beautiful melodic sounds, but showing subtle signs of the Dirty Electro sound we all adore. PURE GENIUS.
