If you’re going to sample one of the most recognisable vocals from a 90s dance hit and then pitch it down, you better do it well. In fact you have to do it well, otherwise everyone will think you’re a twat. Fortunately, the Brighton-based Ambassadeurs manages to pull it off with aplomb. Fitting it snugly between a growling bassline and soaring melodic flourishes, there’s something undeniably retro about the whole song. Think speedboats, Miami and white linen suits.
The song will be released for free through his website: http://ambassadeursmusic.com, and his first official single will be released for Pilot in February.
