SONG PICK: Jon Prezant – Only Love [EXCLUSIVE PREMIERE]

With his instantly appealing, soft and rich vocals, Jon Prezant holds our attention from the start. Initially, “Only Love” appears to be a slow, quiet song but rapidly picks up speed, and then it evolves into a stunning dance beat number with pulsating drums, big synth arrangements, beautifully soaring vocals and everything else we desire[…]
