Waiting (feat. Quincy McCrary)
Gossip Culture is on a quest for funk steeped in neon signs & heartbreak, and he’s well on his way with this release. Ryan Sheridan started Gossip Culture back in 2011 as a means for experimenting recording gear with dance beats. His influences are evident, heavily steeped in Motown soul from his extensive vinyl collection. His style has a classic sound influenced in chilled out disco that makes you want to throw on a pair of Wayfarers and hit the town.
Today’s release comes way from his new EP, Strictly Speaking, which is due out in October of this year. For this particular track, Ryan brought in vocalist Quincy McCrary, who also collaborated with Mayer Hawthorne recently. The end result is groovy summer time vibe dialed up with a funky bassline, Motown style guitar riffs, and subdued trumpeting. It’s sexy, warm, and is the perfect combination of new style production and classic sounds.
