Having previously amassed support from tastemakers, Samuel Oscar has shared his latest offering "Wish You Were Here". With his youth gaining influence from both Iceland and Thailand, the artist is now based in the UK, after coming onto the scene in 2020 with tracks that balance lots of emotion with infectiously catchy elements.
"Wish You Were Here" showcases silky vocal delivery over an infectious instrumental. Off the bat, the main sample is placed over a filtered piano. As the track grows, we hear more layers come into place; guitar, bass, drums and piano create a pop ballad with a dreamy and contemplative attitude.
Oscar has explained the track is about “Longing for that someone special in your life. I was in Iceland for work in the winter and my girlfriend was at home in London, UK. In this dark cold, 3 hours of daylight country, I found myself really missing my partner's warmth and her optimistic views that she brings to my life. So I wrote this song about what it felt like to be in this situation.”
Samuel seems set to establish himself as a one to watch in the pop scene. With more releases on the horizon, we cannot wait to see what he’ll drop next.
