USA-based Noah Colton has just released the wonderful indie pop / rock love song, “You Remind Me.” The vibes of this track are reminiscent to the sound of the Britpop movement of the 1990s, filled with upbeat rhythms and catchy melodies.
“You Remind Me” opens to an exuberant, warm, and elegant string arrangement that imbues a timeless, emotive quality on the track. The rich, sweeping layers are smooth and flowing, creating the perfect backdrop for the underlying lyrical narrative.
As the song progresses, the classic layers give way to a more contemporary edge. Acoustic guitar adds a bright rhythmic layer. A warm, deep bass begins to pulse underneath as the drums add a gorgeous sense of momentum. Electric guitar is also used tastefully to help pad out the melodic space in the composition. The tones shine magically and give a lush sense of grit, helping to contrast the track’s slick orchestral polish.
The vocal performance exquisitely and effortlessly soars over the arrangement with a sense of carefree vintage charm. It expresses the sentiment of the lyrics with melody and passion and is supported in all the right places by rich, harmonizing layers. Lyrically, “You Remind Me” is a storytelling love song that has a classic melancholic hue.
