In “I Wanna Dance,” PYTI, also known as Alexey Nikitin, ventures into a sonic exploration that opens with an ethereal synthesizer, evoking an abstract, mechanized avian motion. This introductory soundscape is punctuated by a drumbeat characterized by its pronounced intensity and a bassline that contributes a robust, syncopated foundation. As the track progresses, a dystopian synth arpeggio introduces a minimalist yet dissonant element, playing a pivotal role in the evolving auditory narrative.

The inclusion of a female vocal sample introduces a basic emotional layer, oscillating between an almost spectral presence and a repetitive call to action for unity on the dance floor. While the vocal line bridges the instrumental sections, its repetitive nature may limit the emotional development that could have elevated the track’s impact. A more developed lyrical concept might have helped the track break free from the functional but somewhat predictable structure it adopts.

The latter part of “I Wanna Dance” shifts into experimental territory, with noticeable contrasts in texture. The song’s structure blends club-ready rhythms with elements that could align with cinematic or gaming environments, a fusion that feels deliberate given the track’s recent feature in the Geometry Dash daily level “Aceituna Deshuesada,” a collaboration between NCS and the popular game. This exposure has given the track a measurable boost in visibility, leading to moderate streaming numbers: around 400,000 views on YouTube and a growing presence on Spotify playlists. While not a major hit by mainstream standards, this achievement is notable considering the niche audience for techno-infused electronic tracks.

However, “I Wanna Dance” is not without its shortcomings. The track dips into multiple extended quiet moments, arguably detracting from its overall energy. These prolonged spaces risk disengaging listeners who expect a more consistent rhythmic presence in a dance-oriented track. Furthermore, while the bassline provides a stable foundation, a lack of variation across the track creates a sense of stagnation over time. Introducing even subtle shifts could have prevented the creeping feeling of monotony. A more dynamic use of percussion or additional synth layering could have added necessary tension and release to sustain momentum.

Comparatively, artists like Charlotte de Witte or Amelie Lens often employ gradual build- ups and subtle rhythmic changes to maintain listener interest across longer tracks. PYTI’s production, by contrast, leans heavily on its initial motifs without significantly expanding them, which may confine the song’s appeal to smaller techno and electronic circles rather than broader club or chart success.

Although “I Wanna Dance” finds its footing within a niche audience, its broader marketability remains limited. The track’s lack of a strong dynamic arc or a truly memorable melodic hook makes it unlikely to break into higher visibility charts without substantial remixing or adaptation for different listening contexts.

Overall, “I Wanna Dance” illustrates PYTI’s ability to craft atmospheric and rhythmic electronic music suitable for specific settings. Yet, addressing the noted areas for improvement, particularly in terms of energy pacing, bassline variation, and thematic development, could significantly enhance the track’s impact and longevity within the competitive landscape of electronic and techno music.
