Hear the frantically Shazamed, 2010s cool kid anthem that played during the Paris Olympics closing ceremony.
Hear the frantically Shazamed, 2010s cool kid anthem that played during the Paris Olympics closing ceremony.
If you lived through the great Drive OST takeover of 2011, you probably didn’t need to Shazam Kavinsky’s “Nightcall” when he joined his fellow Frenchmen Phoenix to perform the track during the Paris Olympic closing ceremony… But a lot of other people did! So many that it broke the record for most Shazamed song in a single day.
So (obviously) “Nightcall” is on deck for ya when you cue up this MBE. Also, Ibibio Sound Machine’s richly textured groover “Black Notes,” a brand new soul-stirrer from Kelly Finnigan (Monophonics), and a dip back into Justice’s Hyperdrama.
