Reviving the Romantic Bliss of the Early 2000s, C'batch's 'The Vault 2 - Soul/R&B/Pop/ Rock/Reggae' feels like an Ethereal Cocktail of Hits!

Welcome to the world of experiencing different tangents of sound you love and enjoy with the composer, producer, multi-instrumentalist and author from White Plains, New York, C'batch. As someone who's been actively involved in producing and shaping the 80s sound we all love and reminisce about, C'batch has worked with icons in the scene like NV to help them produce bangers like 'I Need You Now' by NV, and 'Geisha Love' by Eleanore Mills to name a few.

A dynamic dual compilation of melodies that feel ethereal on a multitude of spectrums, their theme is opposites attract.

Starting with Disk -1, we enter this dreamy cosmic affair with 'Will This Be the Last Time?***". A dreamy, surreal moment of romantic yearning, this feels like it dropped straight from heaven. All the tracks on this disc feel like an extension of this theme. A fun fusion of Pop & dreamy depths of R&B, these have got a lot of sultry, addictive nuance to them. We venture into so many different landscapes of endless romantic possibilities; however, if I were to name a favourite from this version of the album, it has got to be 'Next Time(I Won't Be Falling). Refreshing take on an emotion, this feels like a sweet spot between chasing nostalgia while moving on to a newer chapter. Overall, I must say the lyrical landscapes on the entire album are super addictive. I must point out that the first disc feels like a retrospective vision of someone falling in love for the first time, and almost every track here has an element of whimsy to it, whether it was sad tracks like 'Found What's Right For Me', almost every track has a distinctive magnetic superpower that just cannot be ignored. The Last track, 'Rock Dat Pum Pum', featuring Mi Wan Yu Fi, teleports you to a summer vacation and is an absolute dance pop banger.

The Disk-2, which feels like an extension of miscellaneous updos of the superstar tracks of Disk-1, Disk-2 has the same tracks reverbed and rewired to show you how they're not stuck to a single mould. Almost every track on this disc amplifies the feeling of liberation you got from the first part, whether it's through true, added layers of synthesisers, or choir elements. While we notice 'Giving You All My Love' has got a complete melody re-do here, both versions are so addictive. While some tracks have stardust sprinkled all over them, like 'Hey Victoria', 'All Things Possible' is like a pitched-up eclectic rejuvenation here. However, 'Rock That Bum Bum' on here is way more heated up here, and we're here for it! Overall, both discs put together are the best decision because they let you experience two versions of the same track together. Also, about the album, I'm left speechless, it is so phenomenal and mesmerising, you have to give it a try!
