Foxes – Let Go For Tonight
You may have seen her or heard her spectacular voice from the ever popular song ‘Clarity’ by the famous Russian-German DJ Zedd, Foxes may only be known for 2013’s summer break-up song but in truth, she brings much more to the table. ‘Let Go For Tonight’ is her latest single and was not released to disappoint. The song starts out with an immediate upbeat tune accompanied by a piano, followed by Foxes’ first verse along with an energetic chorus. This song is definitely one to lend an ear to when wanting to ‘let it go’.
London Grammar – Strong
London Grammar is a British trip-hop trio from you guessed it, London. London Grammar’s lead singer, Hannah Reid’s vocal style may remind you of Florence Welch from Florence + The Machine, as her voice is packed with power though mixed with a sense of calmness at the same time. This song, ‘Strong’, should be listened on a rainy day as it is not a love song but a song to think and ponder on about life’s meaning and strength. It’s a track of classical ambience.

Zedd – Find You (feat. Matthew Koma & Miriam Bryant)
Undoubtedly, Zedd created one of the most played songs on your playlist: Clarity. Well, now he is back with a new song, complete with his unique style of composition. This track consists of a background piano, with vocals from Matthew Koma and Miriam Bryant that have both collaborated with Zedd before this. Zedd then adds in his signature bass into the chorus and the repetitive, catchy sounds that never get old, along with lyrics that you wouldn't be able to resist singing along to. It’s no wonder they call him a musical genius.
