ManyFew – How Would You Know

“HAVE IT”

Tim: What I have for you here is pretty much a return to proper tropical house, and I would slightly apologise for that but let’s face it it’s been a good 18 months since it was everywhere, and also it’s nice to feel summery what with it being, you know, basically summer.

Tom: The words that came to mind during that first build were: “HAVE IT”. It’s not like it’s enough of a banger to make me shout that out loud, but that’s certainly a good sign.

Tim: Summer in the music, summer in the video, all of which makes me joyous as I lay here by a swimming pool in Majorca, sun blazing down brilliantly.

Tom: There is literally snow on the ground where I am right now, Tim.

Tim: Hmm. Well, maybe not for everyone, then. There are, whichever way, bits in here that are utterly lovely – to name one, that tinkly xylophone line towards the end, quiet as it may be. It’s also just quite nice in general, really – nothing hugely special, nothing that makes me go “oh, this is spectacular”, but just a decent tune with a lot of happy stuff going on in the video.

Tom: Right. Even at three minutes, this doesn’t have quite enough material for its length. I’m agreed about that xylophone line, though — I found myself wishing that had come in earlier. This is serviceable summer dance-pop.

Tim: And as an introduction to summer, I’ll, like you said, “HAVE IT”.
