Sometimes music can find you just when you need it the most. Without warning, one can discover an unknown song that is so captivating that one experiences a transient escape from a distressing environment. An example is “Waiting” by London and Perth two-piece Friends In Paris, and after the release of last year’s “Be Right”, the guys are set to drop their third solid single. This new single continues the absolute masterclass in electronic-pop composition that we’ve come to expect, with each element playing out like an intricate ballet of tweaks and distortions that in lesser hands could disorientate. What Friends In Paris have delivered here, however, is another cohesive and intriguing track, cementing their status of one of the most consistently compelling acts in the genres they take part in and transcend.
