SONG PREMIERE: Sam Brookes - My Girl Drinks Coffee (AR Ferdinand Remix)
The heartbreakingly gorgeous “My Girl Drinks Coffee” by London-based alt-folk singer-songwriter Sam Brookes gets a remix treatment by AR Ferdinand, hailing from El Salvador. While the original track is intriguing in its own rights, the remix version appears to be a bit lighter and more dance floor ready without compromising the essence of the song. Sam Brookes has spent the last two years experimenting not only with new material but also new styles, looking for new inspirations and the first result of his sonic explorations is “My Girl Drinks Coffee”, a song inspired by the break-up of a relationship. In the simple lyrical statement “My girl drinks coffee now without me” lies a plethora of feelings, while the melody and the supreme vocals drive the melancholic sentiment home. “My Girl Drinks Coffee” is as irresistibly beautiful as it is beautifully sad. We’re thrilled to exclusively premiere the AR Ferdinand Remix of “My Girl Drinks Coffee” as our Song Pick of the Day:
