CDS Picks has officially been retired and will be replaced with a daily, more in-depth look at a single song. This new feature will be dubbed the Pick of the Day.
After gaining some much needed attention with her pop friendly "Up We Go", the first single from Canadian singer Lights' third studio album Little Machines, she's back with a brand new track that more reflects her electronic roots. "Portal" sounds like a hand picked Siberia deep cut complete with dark and hazy vocals and soft electronic elements.
It sounds like it could have some crossover potential in the Pop market, but the real reason for the release of "Portal" is to properly introduce new fans that Lights gained with "Up We Go" to her true, unique sound.
The music video for the track fits the personality of the song, being shot completely in black and white and being shot with minimal care and minimal effort so to say. Not that she's done a bad job, but the entire song and video feel like they're genuine and true without going overboard on any one element. It's well rounded.
Check out the official video for "Portal" below and come back for another Pick of the Day tomorrow! Have a suggestion or like this feature? Let me know below!
