Electronic, RnB | Snakehips – After I Met U
Posted by mimada on July 31, 2014
As I write this, I’ve only listened one time to this brilliant new track from UK heartthrobs, Snakehips, and my fingertips are tingling with excitement. I even just caught myself casually grinning. Preface: summer vibes to the max (because rainbow pastel is the new black, right?). “After I Met U” radiates the Snakehips’ signature style of combining sultry R&B vocals and feelings with an upbeat and addicting retro electronic backing. A style we’ve seen most recently in their kaleidoscopic single “Days With You” featuring songstress Sinead Harnett. This track, which was pulled from Snakehips’s live sets in response to the high demand from fans, showcases Cheri Dennis in a much more exhilarating manner than the original. And to top off what was already another casually perfect song from the cat-loving producing duo, the switch up and throwback at the 2:15 mark will knock you out of your chair. And suddenly I’m feeling compelled to whip out some of ol’ Jenny’s moves…

Chill, Electronic | Sinead Harnett (Feat Snakehips) – No Other Way
Posted by mimada on May 29, 2014
The stunning British songstress Sinead Harnett, who you might recognize from her collabs with Ryan Hemsworth & Disclosure, recently paired up with my *all-time* fav producing duo Snakehips to bring us this electro-soul feel-good jam “No Other Way.” You’ll recognize those spacey sounds that are so quintessentially Snakehips, but it’s Sinead’s vocals that really steal the spotlight here, enveloping you like a gentle breeze on a warm summer day. If you’re a fan of Banks, you’re going to love this. And on a side note, shoutout to Snakehips for their efforts in bringing soul and R&B music back to life, what a breath of fresh air it is to hear something with some real feelings.
