23-year-old London-based newcomer Alexander Teller is the most refreshing artist I've come across in a long while. With a repertoire that spans the genres of dark, blues-licked electro and synth-heavy indie pop, his sound is original and completely unexpected.
Opening with atmospheric guitar strums, deep, gloomy vocals, and compelling lyrics, "Like A Dog" is a slow-burning piece of musicianship with a transformative nature.
As the track builds, twisted, synth-laden electronic tones become punctuated with celestial harmonies something surprisingly akin to Active Child, making for a masterful listen that will haunt you long after the fade of the final bars.
