Continuing the scorching streak of 80's vibes to cross my inbox lately, Aussie songstress Vanessa Elisha brings retro synth heat to your playlist with "Butter."
Layered on top of the beat put down by UK producer LOXE, Vanessa's 90's R&B-inspired vocals create a sound that's as smooth as, well, "Butter." High pitched vocal oohs adorn the first half of the track, before elevated and suspenseful synths usher in a classic breakdown that carries the song to its finish. After rediscovering Janet Jackson as an adult and feeling inspired to make "something a little less dark, a little more fun, a little more sexy," Vanessa found LOXE on Soundcloud while she sought out "the perfect blend of R&B and 80’s pop." "Butter" follows "Under My Skin," played by Elton John on his Beats 1 show Rocket Hour, as the pair's second collab.
