The Piano chord progression on this track is simply lovely. Also dig the glitched out vocals in the bridge, something very close to my heart in terms of production. Gemini Club – By Surprise

Digging that 802s DX7-esque bassline on this joint - Micheal Jackson would be proud. Jacques Lu Cont - Church
Christopher Norman is back with a new release from his forthcoming "EP 3 ". This time around, it's a warm mid tempo track showcasing his velvet smooth voice (think Damon Albarn [Gorillaz front man] in tone). Love the balance of electronic tones with the more traditional classical elements, such as the piano and strings, a lovely balance indeed. Christopher Norman - Connect Me Connect Me by misternorman Lyrics: [verse 1] room [...]

Visc. is 18 year old musician Dylan Fellows, from Athens, Georgia. On Apollo, Dylan sounds like a male version Chrissie Hynde (lead singer of the Pretenders) being backed by an Erasure track. So in other words, a dream match-up come true. Really looking forward to hearing more of this electronic dream match up! Visc. - Apollo Visc. - Virtual Friend Soundcloud
