here's review no 127 for you!!!! we have a great track for you this week. it's as surprising as it is high energy, and a hell of a lot of fun. we've been listening to funky and jazzy bop; new lover by joshy soul! this song starts out with all the trappings of something chill and lo-fi, but it wastes no time in slapping you in the face with a funky beat and saying no, this isn't that type of song. find out what type of song it is by clicking the play button up above!

what i liked! :)

so this song is absolutely blindingly intricate. between the bass line, tight drumming and high energy, this is a song that goes full throttle and doesn't stop. the massive sound is awash with fills, vocals, synths and awesome chord progressions that have all the joy and fun of a big band ensemble.

what i didn’t like :(

only thing i didn't quite vibe with was the vocal effects in the chorus. to my mind that was the time for a clear vocal line to really crystalise out that hook, but with so much backing vocal it becomes washed out.

my drunk opinion :S

i keep trying to listen to this but my head won't!!! stop!!! bopping!!! helppp!!!

for fans of

a good artist that springs to mind with lots of the same funk and tight production is definitely louis cole.
