MS MR is one of those bands that I am excited to check out early on in the day at Coachella this year. The duo have a unique sound that I think will translate very well live.
The first time I had heard a MS MR song was through a remix of their song Thinking Of You that I posted about a while back by Haerts. Although I love the remixes of their songs, their originals are just as excellent. Their debut LP, Secondhand Rapture, came out last year and it is full of fun, but still mildly melancholy, indie-pop tunes. The best of which being the lead single, Hurricane. I love the way the vocals float over the pounding percussion and dreamy synths/effects used throughout. Check out the video for Hurricane below!
Back to those remixes I mentioned... their songs remix so well! I wanted to put up this remix of their track Fantasy by Xaphoon Jones. It is amazing. The chill trap vibe and cascading synths make this song both relaxing and dance-able at the same time. Xaphoon nailed this one. Check out the remix below
I hope you all check them out at Coachella this year. They will put on a great show!
Happy Coachella! <3
