Our Take

Right, let's dive into the audacious sonic universe that is Matt Ridley's latest offering, "The Antidote." This album is a rollercoaster of emotions, a kaleidoscopic journey through the mind of a musical madman.

From the opening track, Ridley grabs you by the ears and doesn't let go. The eclectic mix of genres on display here is both confusing and intoxicating. It's like a musical buffet, with Ridley as the master chef serving up dish after dish of sonic experimentation.

The production on "The Antidote" is top-notch, with each instrument given room to breathe and shine. Ridley's vocals soar over the intricate arrangements, delivering lyrics that are both poignant and absurd. It's like listening to a modern-day bard spinning tales of love, loss, and everything in between.

One standout track is "Funky Town," a funky, disco-infused banger that will have you grooving in your seat. Ridley's infectious energy is palpable on this track, and it's impossible not to get swept up in the party atmosphere.

Overall, "The Antidote" is a wild ride from start to finish. Ridley's fearless approach to music-making is a breath of fresh air in a world of cookie-cutter pop. So, grab your headphones, buckle up, and prepare to be taken on a musical journey like no other. Trust me, you won't regret it.
