On Beborn Beton’s Truth you’ll find a mixture of electro and synth-pop music, all of which has a dancey edge.  Truth is Beborn Beton’s 4th full length CD (not counting the reissue of their debut, Tybalt) and shows the band’s masterful ability to meld together several elements of electronic dance music.  From track one, Spawn, you will immediately be drawn into their music, which consists of IDM type sequences, enrapturing vocals, and a vibrating rhythm line.  Another World, the first single from Truth, points the bands music more towards synth-pop, yet is still retains a quivering rhythm and substantial beats, making it a perfect dance track.  Stefan’s vocals are delivered smoothly and are 100% free of distortion.  Piquing sequences and hurried vocals are overt on Conspiracy, a track which deals with the hidden truths that we are all a part of.  A mixture of IDM, cyber electro and synth-pop electronics are perfectly blended on Angel One.  Also present is the familiar X-Files type whistle sound, which always seems to add mystery to any musical piece.  A catchy, extraterrestrial based piece, New Born King, is driven by the sharp sequences and a rolling beat.  Bittersweet is a track in which the hard rhythm and samples are electro based, the beats are EBM based, the sequences are entangling, and the vocals are soft and mesmerizing.  This is a track that has it all.  A semi techo-ish beat is submerged beneath a palpitating rhythm and crisp vocals on Game of Fools.  Stranger begins as a slow, mellow piece, but quickly switches gears and becomes a full on aggressive dance piece, complete with a near gabba beat and wet synth lines.  Truth is an album that stands on the horizon of creativity and proves that there is a such thing as edgy synth-pop.
