Why do we like this?
The electronic shudders to a start on this rework, and I'm thinking this has Active Child godliness written all over it. Then Jesse Boykin III's bi-sexual voice falls in and confirms an otherworldly sensual bliss.

Esperanza could have left us there, basking in the beauty of "The Perfect Blues," but they surpass expectation. The shuddering turns to shuffling; emotions solidify and dance rhythmically around a one-man chorus. It's a beautiful track through and through.

The collaboration of Jessie Boykins III and Italian group Esperanza is known as Behold, and is part of Red Bull Music Academy's live event Fuoriclasse. You can also hear more from the international trio over on SoundCloud.
