Harts is probably one of the top songwriters on the market right now, so it comes as no surprise that this solo artist from Melbourne, Australia, is taking his brand of funk-pop to new levels of smooth with his latest single, "Angels Walk Below". The song is a very sophisticated blend of old-school guitar, timeless songwriting, and modern production, and when Harts puts it all together for the final product, your ears are greeted with a track that's not only fun, but deeply impressive. Technology has leveled the playing field for independent musicians these days, but talent can't be programmed into music, so despite all the slick chords and bass lines that Harts has put in "Angels Walk Below", the real draw for tracks like these is the effortless synchronization of all the moving parts, and this can only be effectively done if the composer has a good enough ear to make sure every little detail is as it should be. Harts clearly has what it takes to make a fantastic sounding pop track, and he's done it all while adding in distinctive elements designed to ensure that the listener will remember this one long after the first listen. It's mind-blowing that this guy built the track from the ground up by himself, and if the wide range of talent at his disposal is any indication of his chances for success, then we're quite comfortable proclaiming Harts a name to watch for the rest of the year and beyond.
