If Mr. Sam’s known for any studio trait, it’s fashioning the most evocative moments out of the most atypical vocals. Ferry instinctively locks onto ‘Cygnes’s calling, siren-like song, placing it front & centre in the mix. Surrounding it with his fabled intuitively uplifting note arrangements, soaring pads and elegant piano drops, he crowns it with a foot-movingly irresistible finale.
For his take, First State drops back into a trancey state of mind – albeit one that’s cooler and proggier in tempo & tone. Mounting some deeper, darker flourishes and effects onto it, he works in bulging bass and judicious doses of sonic distortion – all of which build to its atmospherically thrilling climax.
