Daring to avoid stereotypes, Michigan native Daniel Wilson's new single "Please Dream Again" is a fascinating song full of pleasant surprises. Fronted by Wilson's peculiar but strangely endearing vocals, "Please Dream Again" draws the listeners attention and intrigue through its complex maze of twinkling minimalist melodies and eclectic musical motifs.
Recorded with a distinctively synthetic approach, "Please Dream Again" draws interest by using a spectrum of unusual sounds and instruments, exemplified by the chirpy whistling solo that brings about the conclusion of the track.
At 2:40 in its entirety, "Please Dream Again" may be a little on the short side, but it crams just enough magic into it to make us crave much more.
