“This is it,” you think to yourself. Your heels are digging into a part of your soul you didn’t know existed. The tie around your neck is on the brink of strangling you spiritually and physically. Death at the hands of the corporate machine is finally close.
But guess what, beloved: it’s Friday. You’ve made it to the end of the week and for that you deserve a saccharine treat to get you in the mood for the weekend. No, we’re not talking about the office's collection of Friday cakes. We're talking about a dose of unbridled positivity from French duo Dub Striker.
Jacking with garage house-influenced drums and a piano riff that puts the phrase ‘mid-00s funky house’ to shame, ‘The Piano Track’ is their next cut premiered by Les Yeux Orange via Imported Paris on a compilation coming in March.
