Behind “Song for You”, released on March 12, there is a guy locked up for a week in his studio, connected in live 24 hours a day on Twitch. Only link with the outside: a landline phone. MyD cut himself off from the world to produce, live, under the eyes of unknown, which looks like his next tube.
Song For Youit is a love letter that grooves, a sentimental banger, right in the French Touch heritage which he kneads in his own way. Released at Ed Banger Records, the song keeps the energy of the big brothers-the science of the loop, the taste of the well-placed sample-but with this supplement of soul made in myd: Motown choirs, a solar melody, a hybrid prod that tanks between filtered disco, UK garage and post-dubstep tender. A wink to Caribou or Jamie XX, but still with this homemade grain, not too clean, not too serious.
After the success of his first album Born A LoserMyD does not change mood but clearly rises its BPM. Song For Youit’s groove for soft hearts, dancing pop for romantic clubbers. Something to sing very hard at 3am, a little smashed, a little in love, or to listen in a loop alone in his room. MyD transforms its white nights into luminous hymns. And the dancefloor said thank you.
