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.
Dubstep vibe but more on the Trip Hop side of the fence. The chorus is more straight up Trip Hop with the drums and guitar work. What sets it apart though is the vocals. Warm and subtle and never overbearing. The vocals are relaxed but fit the vibe and mood of the track. As his bio states: “Musicmaker from Birmingham/Berlin depending on the weather.”
