Feeling
8 tracks.
Kölsch
Kölsch's melodic techno meets the warm, weathered voice of WhoMadeWho's Tomas Høffding in Bloodline, a slow-burning track from 1983, an album about childhood road trips across Europe, that swells like a sunrise over the booth.
The Police
Sting wrote 'Roxanne' after seeing street workers near the band's Paris hotel in 1977: a plea to a woman to leave that life, set to off-beat reggae guitar and a tango-like rhythm, the A&M debut single that became the Police's signature song.
Gorgon City
Gorgon City's sleek, late-night deep house meets Maverick Sabre's raw, soulful voice on Hard On Me, the closing track of their 2014 debut album Sirens: a plea for gentleness carried by a steady, rolling groove.
Gabriella Cilmi
A teenage Gabriella Cilmi takes Justin Timberlake's 2002 break-up hit out of Timbaland's beatbox-and-clavinet production and sings it as a stripped-down soul lament, her husky voice carrying all the hurt.
Funky Fat & Digitaria
Two Brazilian acts, the Belo Horizonte trio Funky Fat and the duo Digitaria, meet on Jamie Jones and Lee Foss's label Hot Creations in 2012: a slower, electro-slanted house track of soaring synths, grumbling stabs and breathy vocals.
Her
'Five Minutes' is the second single by Her, the French duo of Simon Carpentier and Victor Solf: clean-cut, R&B-tinged pop of finger clicks, rippling guitars and layered vocals, from their debut Tape #1.
Gabriel Vitel
'Burn It Down' by Gabriel Vitel is a dark, six-minute minimal track from the German songwriter and indie dance live act's 2014 debut EP on Ipoly Music, built for the dance floor rather than the radio.
