They are a 3 piece in the current configuration of the band, made up synths, effects, sampler, and electronic \/ acoustic drums. Brothers Airick and Daniel work together to create a really unique vocal sound by harmonizing and using effects on one of the vocals.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cultureaddicts.files.wordpress.com\/2012\/06\/doldrums-1.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3071\" title=\"Doldrums 1\" src=\"http:\/\/cultureaddicts.files.wordpress.com\/2012\/06\/doldrums-1.jpg?resize=584%2C432\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"432\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Doldrums are doing something completely different than what is out there in electronic music today with the spacey atmospheric vocals and very bass heavy tribal \/ rave drum beats (in the live setting at least). Airick acts as a new age conductor leading his bandmates and the audience through a highly danceable, propulsive set. He keeps the other two members in check as he lays down the frantic samples and base rhythms.<\/p>\n<p>MP3:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/cultureaddicts.files.wordpress.com\/2012\/06\/digital-mastering-doldrums-v1-egypt.mp3\">Doldrums &#8211; Egypt<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/cultureaddicts.files.wordpress.com\/2012\/06\/doldrums-2.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3072\" title=\"Doldrums 2\" src=\"http:\/\/cultureaddicts.files.wordpress.com\/2012\/06\/doldrums-2.jpg?resize=584%2C437\" alt=\"\" width=\"584\" height=\"437\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Even though there is a lot of buzz around Doldrums, they definitely deliver on the hype with a fun danceable live set and energetic performance.
