New Music from Basavriuk

When I first put on this single from Puerto Rico’s Basavriuk, the natural bounce was what drew me in; the jangle of guitar notes curling around wasn’t too shabby either, blending in seamlessly with my typical listening rotation. Then, the vocals pulled at me; they’re way down in the mix, almost as if they’re drowning beneath the melodic punch. I loved how they hid in there, careful to add another layer of brightness to the song’s spring, though done in a fashion that simultaneously hangs onto the dark tones of the guitars and washes of keyboard. A fun little pop ditty to get under your skin.
