The dazzlingly catchy “Soda Magique” is a new single from Teuteu, a French artist living in Montreal. “It’s very inspired by the classic French Boogie songs from the ’80s,” the artist notes, “but also by Daft Punk as I use a talkbox on the solo part.” The three-minute mark and onward certainly struts that Daft Punk-esque charm, with its soaring solo feel. Prior, two vocalists split each of the verses, each succeeding with a suavely melodic delivery — like Jacques Brel meets electro-laden boogie. The conversational vocal style aligns wonderfully with the clanging piano, funky bass, and all-out nostalgic feel. “Soda Magique” is bound to get stuck in your head.
