Cat Mayel - Free

Free - Cat Mayel (R&B) We welcome Cat Mayel to our blog this week as a first timer, joining us with latest record “Free.” The track does a great job of setting the atmosphere immediately—a haunting intro with a far away siren that drives throughout the entire production, soon joined by a groovy bass, contrasted by the bright vocals. And on the topic of vocals, they are sultry and strong, reminding us of Goapele. They are also quite slippery-sliding up and down those scales with ease. It’s a siren song, later descending into a heavy reverb to take up all the space on the record. It’s a mystical track with a pillowy vinyl fuzz that we think goes right on your rainy night playlist. Grab a glass of wine and sink into this one.
