Transportive, sinewy and slinky R & B, with a warm and beautiful vocal, and some chilly synth washes that instantly brought to mind Ryuichi Sakamoto’s finer moments ( think his “Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence soundtrack). Tégui also serves up a sweet spoken word break that triggered another 80’s memory, that being Grace Jones’s sublime declaration within her own classic “Slave to the Rhythm”. This is one gorgeous rainy day of a song, an absolute beauty.
Obsessively devoted to excavating the unjustifiably overlooked, forgotten, hidden in plain sight & truly underappreciated in the musical universe, old and new.
