It’s going to be hard adapting to the coming seasons after a summer like that. Luckily, Active Child is on hand to ease us in with his new song ‘Subtle’.
Featuring Mikky Ekko, ‘Subtle’ begins as a chilly, autumnal track that reminds us just what Pat Grossi is all about: glossy, glistening production & atmospherics that allow the mind wander off.
What you soon realise is that ‘Subtle’ isn’t a subtle Active Child track at all; rather than building up into a stadium-sized soundscape, it slow-burns into a disco jam that erupts into a dancefloor filler by the time its four minutes are up. Progression? For sure. Still packing that absolutely unbelievable voice? You know it.
