here's a fantastic track i've been meaning to post, Dinner from Brooklyn/L.A-based synth pop/r&b crooner Blood Orange {Devonté "Dev" Hynes} off his new self-titled "Blood Orange" 7" (2011).
Dinner is an ecstatic, 80s-adoring, Prince-esque, super smooth, soulful synth-pop track, infectious minimal, groovy beats/percussion et a funked-out throbbing bassline hook in deep before Hynes' smooth, sensuous, soulful voice arrives, crooning away nostalgically, flourishes of shimmery, hypnotic, blissed-out synth hooks et melodies keep things dreamy, but with a melancholy-tinge. a real highlight on the track is the echoing, plinky guitar riff during the outro, absolutely stunning, a stroke of genius, gets me every time! enjoy!
