Spoiler alert: that synth line around 1:05 just hits different. It's hard to pinpoint what style I'd consider "Tangerine," which is most likely one of the reasons why it landed on Spotify's genre-bending playlist, Lorem.
17-year-old, Ezra Brown, has been going off with the releases this year. The beginning of 2020 saw his debut EP release, Third Block Saved My Life, followed by popular single release, "Plants," and now topped with "Tangerine." Who is to say what we can expect next?
Brown's emotively-driven vocals paired with colorful synth layers drive this indie pop track in a refreshing direction. The uniqueness of Emelesef's sound is inspired by '90s shoegaze acts, '00 pop acts, and contemporary alt-rockers.
Quite literally like the fruit, "Tangerine" is short and sweet; leaving you wanting more.
