One Song

Calan Mai

Black Box

Joel Frieders | August 8, 2015

I hit play and then walked away. 

Fuck.

Twenty minutes later I've listened to the song four times and I'm onto my fifth. This sounds like There Will Be Fireworks meets Leo Wyndham (Palace) and it's unreal.

I have no idea who this is, what dude's other shit sounds like, or what the rest of the day's feels will feel like after this song sinks into my psyche, alls I know is this shit is gorgeous. Gorgeous in this innocently introverted manner that's both disarming and disturbing, but completely fucking appreciated.

I hope Calan Mai understands how important the patience in his songwriting is, because the gentle build that "Black Box" demonstrates is absolutely fucking huge, and I'm in fucking lust. 

Join me in stalking this dude immediately.
