Borneo is a song by electronic dance music producers Alex Vlastaras and Joseph Youngman also known as Aero Chord and Wolfgang Gartner respectively. The song was released on 7 April 2017, by the Canadian record label Monstercat.
Background[edit]
In an interview with Billboard Dance, Youngman commented on collaborating with Vlastaras on "Borneo":
Both of us already knew how to merge our two sounds, we both had the same concept for the track going back and forth between fast-paced and half-time, and that this was the best way to incorporate our individual footprints. The result is something that neither of us would have made alone and is really unique in that it can't be confined to a genre.[1]
Critical reception[edit]
Landon Fleury of Your EDM compared "Borneo" to Youngman's previous work, stating that the song sounds nothing like his previous work with the exception of "Channel 42" and "Piranha" in terms of vocal chops, further stating "Straying from repetition, Aero Chord and Wolfgang Gartner switch things up around every possible corner, which will impress listeners more and more as the track plays out."[2] Writing for EDMTunes, Ryan Harcourt described the song as if it was "produced in the depths of the jungle", stating "from start to finish, this track is intense incorporates a variety of different elements to bring the heat".[3]
Ross Goldenberg of We Rave You described the song as "a more experimental route" compared to Youngman's previous work, stating "The collaboration comes as a bit of a surprise to some, but Gartner and Chord pull it off and deliver an interesting trap sound that has become a rarity in today’s commercial scene."[4] Alec Giorgio of EDM Sauce stated "The tune is 4 minutes of collaborative genius from the duo and it is definitely one of the most interesting songs we have heard in awhile."[5] Tess McDermott of Noiseporn stated "'Borneo' is fast, ferocious, and filled to the brim with jungle terror. The beat is tribal and hypnotic, matching with its cover art flawlessly."[6]
