Tim: His mum knows him as Rasmuss Bjornson, his target audience as Raise, a Swedish house producer who’s fairly new on the scene; here’s his second track.
Tim: And that’s quite lovely, isn’t it? Right from the off with the pleasant (albeit slightly disconcerting, at least initially) tone of whatever that is – it seems to vary between sounding like a saxophone and a stained vocal – it’s a very enjoyable piece of music to hear.
Tom: I was unconvinced for the first minute or so, until that build started — that’s where it started to come together. Although you’re right, I can’t quite worth out what that synth is either.
Tim: The chorus isn’t one that’ll get a dancefloor pounding – there’s not enough of a MASSIVE DRUMBEAT for that – but nonetheless (or perhaps it’s because of that) it makes lovely listening.
Tom: Agreed. I really wasn’t expecting to like this, but the instrumentation is pleasantly weird. And for the third time in a row, we have a cameo from a cow to take us into the chorus.
Tim: Yeah, what’s going on with those? Anyway, the rest of the vocal on there can confidently be described as sublime, so we can forgive it. Ideal scene for this, I reckon: getting ready to go out to. Not too loud, but more than enough of a beat to get you in the mood. Perfect.
