DARING DUO

Go Missin’ by Usher

— written by Yesenia Varela (elDon Staff Writer)

Usher presented his Valentine’s Day gift to all his fans with the single Go Missin’. Usher partnered with DJ and Producer Diplo to create a sound different from his usual R&B style. A calming melody mixed with an upbeat and transient background rhythm, Usher sets this single apart from classics like Burn and Yeah. It is easy to imagine that you are dancing at a club to this electrifying new single.

RUNNING AMOK

Atoms for Peach by Amok

— written by Aaron Vasque

The surreal album Amok by Atoms For Peace takes cues from ambient, glitch and electronic music. Vocalist Thom Yorke wears his influences on his sleeve with mystical lyrics that echo Neil Young over beats that harken back to his collaboration with Modeselektor. Amok is a very emotional album; tracks are dark, beats are loud, and Yorke’s voice is mysterious as he sings in one of the best albums of the year.
