Shayna Zaid - 'Hourglass'
SHAYNA ZAID releases innovative electronic pop on sensual single, ‘Hourglass’.
Following on from brooding, emotionally raw single, ‘Low Down’, SHAYNA ZAID ‘s ‘Hourglass’ is a minimal yet powerful cut of meticulously crafted electronic music with a pop belly that leaves you savouring the taste of every moreish second. There’s definitely an art pop vibe running through ZAID’s creative process here that sets out to stun as ZAID takes her listener through unusual samples and explosive bass, skirting with the cinematic while refusing to conform to conventional standards.
ZAID’s sensual vocal has a breathy soulfulness with huge mainstream appeal. As her sultry words seep under the skin, it’s impossible to not be intoxicated by her compelling delivery, paired with dark and fiery production that sees her sound channel the visionary appeal of FKA Twigs and the emotional vulnerability of LACES. Breathtaking stuff!
