Sprawler Fu
Overflow
British / Dutch pop artist Sprawler Fu is producing some extremely compelling and original music lately. The latest single “Overflow” is utterly bewitching.
Layers of backing vocals support Sprawler Fu’s delectable melody throughout. The vocals are, as always, majestically arranged and beautifully delivered.
But what stands out more and more with these tracks is how precise and effective the production is. The little flourishes that carry us from one section to the next, the scaling up of the vocal background as we advance through the song, the sultry bass line in the verses, the shimmering trance of the choruses.
This is top-tier stuff, and combined with the artist’s breathtaking visual sensibility and penchant for creating compelling videos with a minimal budget, it all speaks of an artist who is destined to break through the noise, sooner or later. We recommend you all jump on the bandwagon now.
Amity
Bite Me!
There’s honestly no reason that someone as young as 18 year old Amity Miller should be writing songs that bleed onto the record this powerfully. Yet here we are.
Amity has been building up an audience already on socials in advance of “Bite Me!”, his first single released a week and a half ago - and this track is one hell of a debut, heralding great things to come when the full debut EP arrives later this year.
The obvious comparison made here will be to Adele. And honestly, it’s not inappropriate, though being at the beginning of his journey, Amity’s writing and vocal delivery both have a rawer, more urgent flavor to them.
A lot of Amity’s potential is already realized here, a surprising amount, actually - but you get the sense there’s still a nice reserve of power, authority, and artistry to be developed, and that’s an incredibly exciting prospect.
There is a lot of clever writing here, and it’s all served beautifully by the conservative, piano-forward arrangement and Amity’s massive, insistent, powerful voice. When you’ve got these tools at your disposal, it doesn’t take a whole lot of dressing up to turn heads.
