OSCAR KEY SUNG FOOLS

After you’ve gotten those familial holiday traditions out of the way, the New Year provides the perfect excuse to get together with friends and see in the next annum in style. On new track ‘Fools’, Oscar Key Sung invites musical comrades Ah Mer Ah Su and HTMLflowers along for a righteous little boogie to this modern house production. The Australian beatmaker provides a scintillating backdrop, with a pulsating beat and fiery synths, before Ah Mer Ah Su arrives with some disco-tinged soul vibes. It’s totally a combination you can get down in the club to. Later steps in HTMLflowers with his distinctive speak-sing style and crisp sentences, becoming closely aligned to the rave poetry of Benin City. ‘Fools’ is a collaboration that proves the strongest structure is indeed a tripod, even in music. - HT
