Soaring Pop Number from Silent James

I spent the majority of yesterday browsing through Discos de Killian‘s catalog, and really got stuck on this bouncing bit of lofty pop from Silent James. It’s playful, as you’ll hear in the pianos dancing notes, but I’m particularly fond of the natural joyousness that seems to pervade, even as the notes are fleshed out smoothly by a forlorn trumpet sound. There’s just not enough of pop music that sounds like this, sadly. The label’s just released Someday I’ll Write a Nice Love Story, which could be the perfect soundtrack to your hump day.
