  • Candide – Scaredy Cat

    Candide

    Hugh kick on this coupled with the soothing warm vocals of Candice Strongwater.   I like the blend of synthpop with electronic dance production and this song is a perfect representation of that sound.     

    Really like this remix as well:

  • Imogen Heap – Run-Time

    RunTime

    This is the first cut from the upcoming full length titled, “Sparks” due out August 18th.  I never tire of Imogen’s voice layered over a bed of electronic goodness.  This track is rather upbeat, which I prefer and peppered with some interesting programming and production.
