Holybrune Feat. Dabeull [2021] - Joyride [Dabeull Records] (Full EP)


Holybrune (aka Laura Chaudet) featuring Dabeull (aka David Saïd) "Catching Feelings" was released as a single on 2 Jul and also appears on a four track EP called "Joyride" released 16 Jul 2021.

Dabeull is a Paris based producer as is, I presume, Holybrune whose tag on facebook is "Darker than your darkest girlfriend" .. and also on her twitter "All girls are dark at night" what could she possibly mean by that?

"Catching Feelings" is, well a  'catchy', throwback sound, which some may find a bit poppy, but against some of the dire stuff I've endured this week stands out from the mire.

"Joyride" is in a similar vein with a more obvious nod to the 80s with a funky bassline. On listening again to the full EP "A Song To Send Your Sadness Away" has grown on me, it's a jazz flavoured, breathy ballad/stepper. The final track "Comme Avant" is sung in French (translates to "Like Before") is an 80s influenced pop tune (to me).

Dabeull is obviously heavily influenced by the 80s because as I was posting this a 30 minute mix of his came up next on YT of all predominantly late 70s/80s, very yacht soul oriented. It is very well, mixed - 42 tracks in 30 minutes - excellent in fact!
