Electro-Pop
Video Premiere: Blood Orange – Augustine
Guyanese British artist Devonté Hynes’s music project Blood Orange has totally caught my attention. He has become one of Electro Pop’s smartest and most tasteful producers of 2016. His new song “Augustine” maintains his signature soulful vocals and drum-and-piano instrumentation. Commencing with female guest vocals and entering a thoughtful patch of speak-singing, the song delves into the singer’s falsetto. The video, which Hynes also directed, features the multi-instrumentalist playing various musical devices and dancing.
