Lucky Sun feat. Alison David - Rain & Sunshine (Lucky Sun Recordings)

Tom Lown returns with a new single from his acclaimed Lucky Sun project and it’s another moving collaboration with vocalist Alison David (Red Snapper, The Black Science Orchestra, Bugz In The Attic). “Rain & Sunshine” is a glorious mid-tempo affair, recalling the best moments of ‘90s British electronic soul. The beats are crisp and groovy, the instrumentation warm and full, and the chorus reveals a fantastic, jazzy bass line. On top of it all, Alison delivers something special with her lovely voice and uplifting lyrics. Top notch.

The first of two classy remixes comes from the prolific Sumsuch (Colour and Pitch, BBE) who takes the track in an exciting new direction. Arpeggiated melodies, bright, dramatic piano, and a new choral structure compliment Alison’s vocals in surprising ways. Next up is Tim Haze (Tidy Taps) with an emotive and dreamy downtempo interpretation. The lush pads swell hypnotically around spare rhythms and gorgeous vocals, resulting in a delightful soundtrack to sunsets and sunrises alike.

Lucky Sun featuring Alison David - Deep Love (Lucky Sun Recordings)

Lucky Sun (Tom Lown) and vocalist Alison David join forces to deliver the fresh new single “Deep Love.”

Sounding like summer never ended, “Deep Love” grooves from the very start, sounding like a cross between Lovebirds and Crazy P, and opens up into a deep house masterwork with soulful, Balearic leanings.

Alison David (Red Snapper, The Black Science Orchestra, Bugz In The Attic) pours positive vibes into the track with a storytelling style of spoken word and singing. Her lush vocals compliment the gently drifting strings and catchy synth lines creating the warmest of ear worms.

The release includes a special remix from Alvaro Hylander (DeepWit Recordings). Alvaro, originally from southern Spain, now residing in Belgium, graces the track with his signature deep, warm, and organic sound, making perfect use of the original’s vocals and instrumentation. Top notch all around.
