Saisis par le Soleil

Glassy tones with bright guitar arpeggios and gentle glockenspiel. Delicate timbre with emphasis on glittering fantasy. holds back and quickens to 2:51 where strummed guitar introduces a more urgent section with horns and building layers of harmony. At 4:58 there is a held breakdown where everything is still, like holding your breath, then glock and guitar build almost imperceptibly to a strummed final section with added percussion. A beautiful, sublime track.

Move Your Feet

Quality disco with a laid back feel. Intro builds on a hi-hat drum riff with a funky bassline, joined by cool piano, jangling guitars. Cool, funky and earnest. Reminiscent of “We’re Lost in Music” by Sister Sledge.

Vocal version has words “move your feet, step up to the beat, got the urge to move your body”.
