While definitely not your mother's dance music, Johann Heyys most certainly is
well mired in the club scene. Drum'n'Bass is the genre of choice, with a
little ethnic flair and other oddities like samples of cows. The
simplicity and rather eccentric sounds, however, make for a difficult listen.
The rather placid and uninspiring vocals are not that interesting either. While
the ideas and sounds behind "Look Carefully" are well intentioned, the execution
leaves a great deal to be desired. The basslines and drum loops are
monotonous, and at times the album appears to have been written on extremely
dated equipment. In the end, this makes for a rather haphazard collection of
songs with little or no cohesive value. The disjointed nature of music is
simply too overpowering.
