“Hurricanes” presents a rousing blend of electro-pop and psych-leaning rock, an impressive showing from Suken and London-based band Mara Den. “The track has a powerful yet nostalgic vibes,” Suken says. “We tried something that would sound timeless on this one.” The attempt is successful; from the get-go, soaring vocals are accompanied by both guitars and a creeping synth pad, which envelops the track prior to the glistening surge of synth-based energy at the 30-second mark. The blissfully hypnotic vocals and infectiously charged synth/guitar interplay result in a track with atmospheric and melodic appeal.
