As with List favourite, Jack Garratt, LA's Gallant was one of a handful of rising stars handpicked by Zane Lowe to appear on his first worldwide broadcast via Apple Music's new radio platform, Beats1, yesterday. Sure, Gallant has been plying his trade for a little while now, but that patience has paid off in a huge way, with 'Weight In Gold' now making waves all over the globe thanks to that one play from Auckland's finest (and most excitable) DJ. Formed around a liquid beat and earwormy synth hook, 'Weight In Gold' sees Gallant's charming, richly-textured vocal at its finest - hitting every note with perfect timing and just the right amount of emotional restraint. Keep an eye out for another new EP, on its way this summer. - DC
