It is hard not to love a flip over an already successful song, since we are drawn to the sounds that are familiar to us. Jesse Kendal, the producer known as Kendl drops a cut of the Little Dragon track : Little Man, that melts right on the tongue. Chopping and elongating the vocals in sections of the song creates an atmospheric feel. Kendl uses the tempo to his advantage and boosts the sound of the baseline for your listening pleasure.
The track pulls you in and with Yukimi Nagano’s angelic vocals and you get a sense of what was. But paired with the precision timing of Kendl's production, it becomes an entirely new beast. Underlying key tones flow with the progression throughout the entirety of the song providing a complete package for your ears. With the melody intact the familiarity of the song shines through, letting listeners know there still might be “Something missing in your soul.”
