“WEEKEND” is the brand new track from artist “BContheTrack”, featuring Beaux. Right from the offset, fans of old-school R&B and hip-hop are likely to get a great sense of nostalgia from this track, as well as something brand new to be swept away by.
The featured vocal on the chorus has impressive strength and style to it that is perfectly in keeping with the sort of mood and melody expressed throughout. You get that hook in your mind straight away, it stays with you, the mellow yet bouncy vibe of the music behind the vocals helps hold it there, and overall there is a cool and relaxed ambiance to the whole thing. It works really well as a single. Simple and effective, with an optimistic and generally positive vibe – always something we need more of in the world.
It was a real delight to hear the quiet explosion that takes place in the music of “WEEKEND”. Impossible to tell which direction it’s going at any given time; that wonderful element of the unknown, that genuinely new feeling. In the song “WEEKEND”, the chorus of vocals, the consistent crash of the soundscape, the intensity of the electronic vibe, and synth-like ambiance – even when you start to feel what it’s all about, everything drops away very suddenly, and once again to the absolute minimal – just before it ends. Never boring, and superbly performed, it has to be said – a really interesting way to craft and create a song.
On top of it all, the rap vocal has this thoroughly chilled-out sound to it, a mood which passes on to you as you listen; it’s effective, it’s music doing what it should, flowing freely to make you feel good when you listen. Rather than shouting or screaming to get your attention, this leading vocal speaks with a calm sort of confidence – a certainty that is easy to listen to and take on board. It makes it all very believable, and therefore pretty easy to trust and relax to.
The type of rap that BContheTrack offers up has a lot to it that is fairly fresh sounding. He’s not simply mimicking other artists and is not particularly reminiscent of anyone else at all – which is great; that voice is his, everything from the tone, the mellow yet deep performance style, and even the slight hint of an accent, you know who you’re listening to. The flow of the rap performance is really easy to listen to, it adds to the summertime vibe created by the music and the chorus melody, and so the whole thing is very complete sounding – every element is united, working in the same direction, setting the same scene.
