White light - Cold & clear

Description

Liam Bailey arrives with "White Light", an instant classic ready to fill the dance floors. The drum break in the intro, raw and punchy, pulls us in from the first beat before the track gives way to a contagious and stimulating reggae-disco piece. Liam's voice, immediately recognizable, pays homage to his muse over round, deep bass lines and a 4/4 rhythm. The blend of Leon Michels' brilliant production and Bailey's lyrics will surely make it an essential single for DJs worldwide. The B-side "Cold & Clear" is a rhythmic song that takes shape with a natural and undeniable confidence. Liam delivers a powerful metacognitive story over a one-drop rhythm, impeccable bass lines, and organ touches that will move people in time. The lo-fi production mixes elements of the best of early rocksteady era with elements of the late 70s and early 80s digital era and transposes the whole vibe into the present with unconventional arrangements and vocal treatments. Here, Liam Bailey signs a track that will compete with the classics, from the dance halls of Jamaica to the discotheques of his native England.
