I am giddy with excitement right now thanks to a new producer I found and has been on my rotation since the start of the week! Her name is Forty Cats and her garden-refresh brand of electronica literally feels like an immersive journey.

Her rendition of "Don't Let Me Go" is a wonderful example of this sentiment as listeners are enveloped with these large pads that seamlessly comfort you while the drums keep you grooving. The velvet-smooth vocals complement the serene mood we're welcomed to especially when the drums fall silent only to erupt into the mix during the later stages of the track. I can't neglect to mention how the glittery presence of the synths adds so much color to the overall experience.
