Davidge feat. Cate Le Bon - Gallant Foxes (7Hz Productions)
 |
| Davidge - Gallant Foxes |
Release Date: 31st March 2014
Davidge, or Neil Davidge as his
mum calls him, has been the man behind Massive Attack's production for over 15
years but this is his first venture out on his own and this is the first single
taken from recent album 'Slo Light'. The Euro beats of 'Gallant Foxes' could
feature on an Air track and this feeling is only intensified by the sultry and
seductive tones of guest vocalist Cate Le Bon. Weirdly, after one listen, I
couldn't remember a melody to speak of so I went back for a second listen only
to find that apart from a pulsating bass line and sporadic guitar notes, the
real melody is carried by Le Bon's lighter-than-air vocals drifting across the
airwaves. For any Massive Attack fans out there I would say come and have a
listen but don't expect this to be as dark as the Bristolian collective's work
as 'Gallant Foxes' has a certain breeziness and mystique about it that you
might only otherwise expect to experience in a forest clearing at dawn on a
crisp spring morning.
