In a world that demands immediacy, there is something to be said for an artist who takes time with their creations. London electronic artisan, Tourist, has shown this service to "Lies" with his gorgeous take on the CHVRCHES electro-pop classic. With an opening two minutes featuring nothing other than Lauren's haunting vocals and ghostly piano track, Tourist shows finesse as he slowly introduces each intricate element, allowing them to linger while creating a palpable sense of anticipation. Intimately, he takes his time to slowly draw back the curtains before finally, at the four-minute mark, the electronic masterpiece is revealed in all its cathartic glory.
