FROM KID - SINGLE REVIEW

From Kid - Sun 
From Kid - Sun

Swiss duo From Kid are a bit of a conundrum for me, I must admit. There is something appealing about the understated, almost muted keyboard melody of new single 'Sun' but somehow the music doesn't manage to achieve heights any higher than a combination of Keane and Savage Garden. Add to that the fact that the video seems to depict the gents of From Kid auditioning for a Next autumn season fashion advert, and this isn't a release that grabs you by any interesting part of the body. It's perfectly pleasant, gentle in a way but it's neither blissfully relaxing and dreamy nor is it exciting or enticing enough to be a sexy little number that you might hope for. So, good intentions but not enough action, methinks.
