Always a good week when new Big Black Delta music drops especially when it’s his forth full length album aptly named ‘4’. My favorite tracks from Jonathan Bates (aka Big Black Delta) are the up beat tempo tracks with his vocals and a splash of melancholy. It’s those tracks that connect for me and ‘Vessel’ is one of them. ‘Vessel’ has a sweet undercurrent of sadness but locked in a lovely melody. Favorite line in the track ‘All I get are lessons, Through a broken heart’.
Laid back and sunny is the new Dim Sum track, ‘Is It Fine’. This is the first single from the up coming EP due out this September. The track is an indie electronic pop tune with jangly guitars and a heavy bass sound. The vocals are cool and relaxed and the vibe is just chill. Dim Sum is a producer from France.
Sofi Tukker (American duo Sophie Hawley-Weld and Tucker Halpern) have just released their latest remix. They took the original disco-esque / modern pop tune and added a bit of dance grit to it. Think LCD Soundsytem treatment in terms of style. The lead plucky sound is catchy. Overall, I prefer this version to the original – always a hallmark of a great remix.
