You could say we’re quite miserly when it comes to picking house tunes, and when we do, there are some obvious garage-soaked influences amongst them, as UK-based producer GRADES drops a groovy, vocally addictive dance piece entitled “Crocodile Tears”. Entering the exponentially escalating garage scene less than a year ago, the Londoner has swiftly emerged with a firm grasp on the fusion of hefty basslines and satin-like synths, and either help furnish his crisp drumwork in meticulous fashion. Shouldered by glittering female vocals throughout the piece, too, the particular description on GRADES’ sound is what epitomizes “Crocodile Tears” in its entirety, and with deft, pitch-shifted inclusions of the chorus at appropriate times, this light-footed gem emerges effortlessly amongst its peers. "Crocodile Tears" will be released on iTunes November 17th.
