DSD August 10, 2017: "Why Bother" - WOLF KASH
Shaun Cordingley
Welcome to the "Daily Song Drop": theguysfrom.com's song of the day feature where our resident indie music writer and former DJ Shaun Cordingley features a song every weekday that he feels you need to hear.
Why Bother - WOLF KASH
London based electronic pop brothers WOLF KASH released their debut EP Slow Burn earlier this year, and with tracks like "Why Bother", prove that the name is totally apt.
Check out the song below:
"Why Bother" is a moody, chill electronic song with a few pop elements (I said electronic pop above, but WOLF KASH is much heavier on the electronic side). I really like the soundscape of this song, as it's an immersive track that, each time you listen to it, slowly unfurls another piece. That's not to say that "Why Bother" is ever busy or cluttered, rather it uses each piece of itself to create a really excellent song. This is a perfect slow-motion video/section in a club (in a film) song, and I am sure that if I was needing to construct a more lo-fi set, or section in a set, "Why Bother" would be one of my first choices.
Slow Burn is a great title for a great, chill electronic EP, and each of the four tracks brings something slightly different to the fore, which I really appreciate. I have to say that I am looking forward to hearing more from WOLF KASH in the future, if only for a few late night, staring at the river with a drink, sessions.
Here's the July 2017 DSD Playlist! We're missing a few tracks this month, which is sad for the Apple Music folks, but you've still got a really solid list this month (if I do say so myself, which I do...*cough*)
We are also now on Spotify! Here is the link to the July '17 Spotify List (which features 1 more track than the Apple Music list).
If you're looking for any of our past playlists, be sure to check out a Friday DSD feature, or serach for TGF on either Apple Music or Spotify!
See you tomorrow for our next Daily Song Drop!
