The mix leaves room for air, so the hook glows instead of shouting.
Romance
My favorite Romance songs from the past year.
Rod Thomas and Same Old Lines land like a fresh 2010 obsession: sleek.
When you want something honest without getting gloomy.
The month’s soft, slightly wintry mood.
Ray LaMontagne turns "Let It Be Me" into the kind of love song.
Kina Grannis drops “Valentine” right when starts getting sweet.
The mix feels chilly and cathedral-sized.
Hangs just above the beat like breath on a window.
Donkeyboy’s “Broke My Eyes” sounds like the kind of single.
While you avoid email, clean the kitchen, or wait for the train.
Stornoway and "Zorbing" land like a fresh arrival the kind of song.
James Yuill lands This Sweet Love like a fresh obsession: all pulse.
The production stays clean and bright and with soft edges.
