So much synth, so much fun. There's one particular synth riff appearing on and off throughout the song that almost sounds as if it's tripping over itself, just casually keeping in line with the beat. It lends a sort of loose feel to a song that's built on nothing but synthesizers. "Det haster!" sounds dreamy, but also a tad mysterious. Then again, that's probably because I have no idea what they're singing.
