In March we adored the soft and sensuous, lyrically stunning, intimately-charged feels of “Technicolour Beat” an acoustic-leaning track from London-based duo Oh Wonder which recently saw a vivid-vibe remix from Hamburg-based beat-maker Bread Story; a remix which we like for its smoothed-out tone-drenched harmonics, vibrant swatches of vocal-led melody and gorgeous sublimely-synchronous sense-blasting arrays of quietly-simmering shimmery beats.
