The amazingly awesome producer aptly named Dream Beats is back with their first single. His real name is Anders Hansson, and he's been off the radar for a while now, since his last single with UK pop trio The Face. Now he is back and pairing up with a fresh face named Molly, ready to take the music world head on once again.
This marks a definite change in pace for Dream Beats. "Love Stuck", the track he released in conjunction with The Face, was a much more upbeat and happy song. "Beneath The Lights", while not depressing, certainly isn't as cheery as it's predecessor. The song crawls along, letting you seep in everything, and then does a 180, becoming a much faster song for a short period of time during the chorus. I've not seen this method used often, which keeps the track feeling fresh even after a few goes.
The video is quite simple. I don't know how attention-grabbing it is, but then again with the source material, something like this could be expected. The majority of the video is Molly singing over images of a city. The video seems to be a metaphor for loneliness, but it is pretty vague, nonetheless.
Dream Beats has made a name for themselves with their last single in the blogosphere -- and being associated with crazy popular Scandinavian group Le Kid probably helps. Molly, on the other hand, is a bit of a mystery. I found both her official website and her Facebook, both of which are rather barren. Props to anybody who can get me any more info on this Brit singer.
