TRACK OF THE MONTH / april 2024: Heat Wave by Music Orange

Heat Wave: TRACK OF THE MONTH / april 2024*

This month…Just in time for Cinco de Mayo, "Heat Wave" is a perfect name for a tune that kicks off with the warmth of a vintage electric guitar riff. But it's the feverish groove that gets the temperature rising with cowbells, congas, shakers and timbales. Everything about this jam sizzles - the heated horn section, the peppery backing vocals, and a bass-line that bounces around like it's dancing barefoot on hot cement.

TRACK OF THE MONTH / february 2024: Claustrophobic by Music Orange

Claustrophobic: TRACK OF THE MONTH / february 2024*

This month…There's a dark tension slowly building within the ricochet rhythms of the aptly titled "Claustrophobic." A smattering of muted beats opens with a cadence that approximates human hyperventilation before 1980s electro-goth flavored synthesizer notes dance fiendishly around the stop-start arrangements. A false ending leads to a pulsing coda, haunted by mysterious whispers.

Circo Nocturno: TRACK OF THE MONTH / january 2024*

This month…With its Romani-flavored swing and modern-day production, "Circo Nocturno" balances hot club jazz with 21st century energy. A sauntering, manouche-inspired melody opens the song, soon accompanied by bouncing rhythms reminiscent of old Django Reinhardt recordings.

TRACK OF THE MONTH / december 2023: Out of Sight by Music Orange

Out of Sight: TRACK OF THE MONTH / december 2023*

This month…"Out of Sight" is so funky, you'll wanna dance the James Brown shuffle to it even before its uplifting melody arrives. A slick, electric guitar lick opens the tune before a big boogaloo groove lays down the foundation of a classic, hard-grooving strut. And while the blasting horn section gives this song a voice, it's the well-oiled rhythm section that swings hardest here.

TRACK OF THE MONTH / may 2023: Hit It One More Time by Music Orange

Hit It One More Time: TRACK OF THE MONTH / may 2023*

This month…With its post-punk inspired electric guitar riff and a steady four-on-the-floor dance beat, "Hit It One More Time" recalls that bygone time when uber hip, indie-disco bands wore white belts and angular haircuts. The tune even boasts a little South London flavored injection of dubstep wobble on the breakdown. But it's the uplifting vocal cameo that makes "Hit It One More Time" sound more timeless than nostalgic.

This month…"Spark of Life" is a bubbly electronic number that opens with choral synthesizer bursts playing alongside sputtering ricochet beats. But it's the lilting glockenspiel notes that yield the airy melody here. This cheerful tune also utilizes hints of drum & bass without sounding too retrospective of the late 90s/early 2000s.
