‘The Wailers’ was an unexpected surprise. Immensely soothing and hypnotising, the record provides a floating-like listening experience; imagine travelling the world on a cloud, bouncing from place to place with understated grace and elegance. That’s how ‘The Wailers’ feels like. Built over gentle and spacious psychedelic pop stylings, the track blends vintage-sounding guitars with all sorts of keys and textures, all drenched in a strong lo-fi formula.
What impresses us the most is the light and hazy character of the single, something that positively characterizes its author, Cambridge-based sonic wizard Man With A Corduroy Heart. Once we learnt that ‘The Wailers’ was in fact the project’s debut single, we realized that the future looks very bright for him: a ton of potential in here.
A musician and audio engineer active in commercial music, Man With A Corduroy Heart explains: “It’s a song about becoming a dad and trying to get the baby to sleep through the music of Bob Marley.” Such a witty and nuanced lyrical theme showcases his songwriting prowess, evidence that the British creative is artistically complete.
