The more genres you can stuff in a track, the better, right? Well, maybe not if you're name is Rick Rubin (the legendary producer is famed for his minimalist approach), but experimental Swedish act Manfred Kidd would definitely agree with the thought. The duo's latest effort, "Treetops", is a cheerful, wonky melting pot of a pop song, complete with infectious melodies and energetic instrumentals designed to grab your ear and lift your spirits. The production on the track is truly outstanding, using unconventional, Miike Snow-referencing sounds that move this song from good to great. "Treetops" demonstrates pretty clearly that Manfred Kidd has a signature style that shouldn't be missed, so be sure to check out their SoundCloud if you're digging this track here.
