Our favorite Norwegian just dropped a double dose of material today, including a new snippet of an original featuring Ella Henderson. Kygo has continued to be an intrepid tour de force in tropical house, and these new tracks only further affirm the 23 year-old’s status.
“Here For You” features the vocal talent of Ella Henderson, and captures all the lofty effervescence we’ve come to expect from the producer. The UK singer maintains center stage throughout the clip, supported wonderfully by a more traditionally processed piano. Almost like a duet between the tropicalia of Kygo and Henderson’s resonating lyrics, you can grab this beauty now on iTunes.
In addition to the original track, Kygo’s released a remix of “Dirty Paws” by Of Monsters And Men. His staple keyboard modulation is a brilliant complement to the introspective acoustics on the original’s guitar lead. He’s done well to support the band’s instruments with plenty of embellishments and a driven bassline to propel the mix forward. Overall, it’s a quality remix, but that keyboard top line sounds a bit tired and is nothing particularly new. Though, the similarity to other tracks is understandable, as its been sitting around awaiting release for a whole year.
Regardless, click the links above to hear the latest delicacies from Kygo.
