Song of the Day: Where the Wind Blows from The Great Gatsby Soundtrack

I first heard this track on DJTravis Holcombe’s show yesterday and it completely stopped me in my tracks.

Quadron singer Coco O harnesses her vocal power (and sensuality) perfectly, soaring over a drum n bass beat and a jazzy old-timey piano melody. The combination of these three things, and the lyrics, make it an utterly enthralling mix.

“I just want to have a good time. Can’t I have fun for the rest of my life. Just go where the wind blows.”

You’ve probably heard all about the soundtrack to the new “Great Gatsby“ movie, directed by Baz Luhrmann, because Jay-Z executive produced it.

While tracks by bigger names like Beyonce, Florence & The Machine and Lana Del Rey get a lot of attention, I hope this gem doesn’t slip through the cracks. Ideally, it will turn a wider audience on to Coco’s talents. She sincerely deserves it.

Editor’s Note: Quadron have a new album out soon and will be performing on Morning Becomes Eclectic to celebrate! Stay tuned for details.
