With a bass layer possessed by demons and a saccharine set of melodic synths inhabited by angelic sounds, Omar’s latest cut ‘I Cut You’ is sharp, fresh, sweet, and right in time to viral throughout the beach season.
Born in Aruba and currently based in Los Angeles, Omar is Omar Pierce, a singer and songwriter whose pristine pop sound is modern and ultra crisp. For ‘I Got You’, Omar was inspired by the sweet and playful ‘Yummy’ by Justin Bieber and delivered a summer single full of gentle push and colorful, playful energy delivered by a stellar set of synth layers that sound just sublime.
Recorded at Circle House Studios in Miami, ‘I Got You’ was written in collaboration with Omar’s long-time collaborator and writer Felly the Voice who wrote the hot lyrics and brought the finalizing touches to the mix, before the duo to the work to audio engineer Jesse Jazz in Miami, who helped them perfect the sound. The song’s summery vibes are delivered by Omar’s soulful and capable vocals, bridging the gap between soul and RnB and falling somewhere in between, truly distinctive and personal to Omar.
The synths cover the song’s limited harmonic range of two sweet major chords with a plethora of plush and chirpy sounds that deliver hypnotic, cyclic melodies while the uber-thick sub bass populated the lower harmonic spectrum with its juicy and commandeering presence. There’s no doubt that ‘I Got You’ is a stellar sounding release. Omar’s ‘I Got You’ is an immediate hit. Soft, sophisticated, refreshing, and just very enjoyable.
