THE ALTONS - Float

CATALOG: PRS1016 RELEASE DATE: 2/24/23 The Altons turn up the heat with another platter produced by the Inland Empire's own, Bosco Mann. A soulful duet at its core, "Float" finds the group exploring new realms of pop excellence. The sophisticated arrangement and instrumentation gives the tune a cinematic feel that builds to a crescendo of psychedelic, swirling strings - immersing the listener in a wash of Morricone-tinged euphoria. A track that wouldn't be out of place in the next Double-O-Seven blockbuster. On the flip is "Cry for Me", a latin-tinged mover featuring Adriana Flores on lead vocal. Her pleading, soulful delivery gives the bouncy, hook-laden tune a seriousness that's simultaneously uplifting and heartbreaking.
