Blonde

Luscious synths and fully saturated fuzzy fills spin around house stabs like dancers so light on their feet. This remix of "All Cried Out" will have you floating in mid-air before you know you've left the ground. Alex Newell's vocals are empowering and strong — "Boy, I'm all cried out over you" — a hopeful testament that there is an end to heartbreak, and it probably starts with listening to this track. James and Conner, of the fairly young London-based duo NVOY, were kind enough to send their remix of "All Cried Out" over to my magic Indie Shuffle inbox, and I'm deliberately pointing this out mostly because now I know their names. A minor detail, but a major win for music journalism. High five!
