I don’t want to get too ahead of myself, but I think London duo Aluna Francis and Georgie Reid (AKA: AlunaGeorge) have delivered a contender for our top 100 songs of 2012 with their latest track “Your Drums”.
Fusing distinctive R&B bass music alongside sliding electric piano, pads and cute female pop vocals, their latest track is smooth sexy and surreal. Their approach marries a sub-pounding beat to hazy pads and chilled tones that compliment, confuse and intrigue. It’s proving to provide the perfect backing track to a (very) slow Sunday afternoon.
For Arcade Fires fans, this song sits in the same vein as their take on Mr. Little Jeans‘ “The Surburbs”, but needless to say this is not a bad thing.
The single is officially out on October 7th and is a preview to their anticipated 2013 debut album.
