Last two weeks have been release after release for Ellie Goulding, as we approach the release of her forthcoming album Halcyon on October 9th. Teaming up with prolific electronic producer Calvin Harris, the two collaborate on a high energy track that although contains very strong and catchy melodies, it does takes some getting used to. Ellie’s vocals mixed with such an aggressive dancy bassline is a departure from what we have seen producers do with her vocals, primarily using them with slow and grinding dubstep. We admit, Ellie is good enough to sound amazing no matter the circumstances and Calvin is well capable of producing the some of the best electronic experiences, yet most of the production feels a bit forced (primarily after the drops). Nevertheless it is a track that will be well played and hopefully give more exposure to these two amazing artists. Let us know what you think below.
