Preparing a good meal is much more than following a bunch of instructions. If you lack the sensibilities and the taste, you’re basically just throwing different colored substances into a hot pot.
Glass Lord and Ed.1t are not throwing different colored substances into a hot pot, they are expertly adding calculated ingredients at the correct intervals to produce a tasty gourmet-class musical dish.
On this dance cover of Destiny’s Child’s ‘Say My Name’, the duo returns with a unique blend of Daft punk-esque guitars, Drake-esque vocals, and an instrumental that could rock the hardest dancefloor in Ibiza all night long, on the hottest summer days.
The disparities between the original and this cover speak of a great vision the duo has: driving drums and thumping bass, a dull and alluring voice, and thick, honeyed, over-layered guitars, all find their way together to create 3 minutes of pure disco bliss.
It’s been said before a million times, but it’s refreshing to find a case in point occasionally, that music doesn’t need complicated ingredients to just… work. A few simple elements can go a great way to delivering a point if they are curated with care and are applied with intention and vision. The point here is to dance, and dance you certainly will.
