MPFree: What Is Wild (ft Foil) by The Deuces Wild

We love a one-liner here at Snipe. Technically the one-line song is more of a chant: the way to do it, as demonstrated superbly by today’s MPFree, is to surround the pivotal phrase with fast moving, quickly evolving musical textures so the listener never gets board. Here, all round Swedish creative type The Deuces Wild craftily sandwiches a mid-section of pure, farting-synth power between two smoky, jazzy bookends, so when that mid-section comes in, the effect is breathtaking and the vocals take on a whole new dimension.

What Is Wild is taken from The Feel EP, available through Expansions Collective.
