Top pick: The Melodics – Paint Me Gold

Dropped it in the The Melodics EP – Paint Me Go. From the second you drop the the play button – it’s a solid, up beat piece of haunting electronic.

I really enjoy the straight forward nature of the instrumentation. I’m running it through some Bose headphones, and the vocals seem too low in the mix. The singer has a strong voice – including a well used falsetto range – so it’s a real shame we lose it in the mix.

The first track Bang Band is a fantastic intro to the EP. But I was completely blown away with track two – Superhero. Great rhythm and feel. This is definitely a great party track – or even for a grunge bar somewhere in Darlo ;)
