Chris Waters – “With You”

/

Unveiling an effervescent electro-pop momentum, “With You” is a memorable new track from Chris Waters, a singer-songwriter, rapper, and DJ based in Denver, and originally from Milwaukee. The production develops with climactic atmospheric enthrallment — infusing a lush vocal lead and harmonious wordless backings as a spacey, arp-y synth line builds into a buzzing invigoration around the one-minute turn.

“Please take me with you,” Waters’ vocals beckon during the central hook, which sits seamlessly between lusher segments of dreamy entrancement — which admit that “we’re all searching for truth / mine brings me back to you.” Stirring in its adoration and affection, and with a production reminding fondly of Erasure’s synth-pop brightness, “With You” is a heartfelt and melodically magnetic success from Chris Waters.

This and other tracks featured this month can be streamed on the updating Obscure Sound’s ‘Emerging Singles’ Spotify playlist.
