Music

A fuzzy pop brew with a heartbeat on the floor-tom, some Imagine Dragons hand clapping, and a multitude of atmospheric elements that fit together beautifully.

Tight harmonies and a thoughtful arrangement make this song shimmer by like clouds in the sky heading for the coast.

Its not Stevie Wonder and its not exactly DAngelo either. Its velvet, its cigar smoke, its light and shadow.

Its a coming-of-age moment that looks to the future and the past; and there is something candied and piper-like about the nuggets of electric arpeggio that seem to fall in continuous waves.

Shes an optimist; she is deeply personal... This is the voice you want singing you to sleep.

Singer-guitarist Todd Dorigo and bassist Dougie Poynter have put together a dance-rock sound that feels like the club band in a spy thriller. Were drinking the Blue label tonight my friends.

The drums are distinctive, as is the slightly dissonant piano intro. This song comes in all horror movie shower scene, and goes out in a ball of electronic fire.

Yes, its an homage, but its in a tradition of Indie hat-tipping that goes back to Weezer calling out Buddy Holly on The Blue Album.
