"All I Need, Ooh-hey, is Your Arms Around Me"

Full disclosure on tonight's post - I'm about two months late chiming in on Hook N Sling's Arms Around Me. Let's just say, it slipped through the cracks, but thanks to their recent lyric video, I get second chance at sharing it with y'all. Follow along while pressing play below...



I've said it before and I'll say it again, lyric videos that amplify the emotion of a track may not be as flashy as a traditional music videos, but they're stellar at producing a mood for a track. Like in the video above, the theme of taking a road trip with the person you live is something that fits like a glove with the feel-good vibes of the track. Add in some playful, well-timed text and you're in business. If you're one to road trip often, this should definitely be on your open road playlist...#ArmsAroundMe

"Girl Put Your Love On Me, Cause I Won't Let You Down"

Good things happen anytime an artist records with a live orchestra. You might not be able to tell it from listening to Galantis and Hook N Sling's new one, but Love On Me started from a great instrumental foundation. Add to that a vibrant, high pitched vocal sample mixed with calypso style steel drum synths and there's a lot to like about the end result. It's songs like that will be needed tonight when watching another presidential debate chalked full of yelling and mud slinging. Feel free and hit mute on the television tonight and replace it with this ray of sunshine when you've reached the breaking point tonight...#LoveOnMe

"Betta Break Yourself"

The fact that deep house is drifting more and more toward pop music isn't all that bad. Case in point, the deep house bass line wobble on Hook N Sling's new single Break Yourself. The hook is catchy and the bass line is enchanting, making it an easy track to like. The Hip Hop/Pop sound that Far East Movement contributes injects a fun, repeatable element to the track. The slightly computerized vocals are a cool touch and fits the swanky vibe of the track. If this doesn't make you want to kick the weekend off early house party style, I don't know what will...#BreakYourself
