There's something truly magnetic about "Satellite," the newest single from Supersonic Boy, a musical project concocted by French artist Tom Claudet. Already noted for its spirited indie rock energy and Britpop romance, the new Claudet track is a massive leap into his most polished sound yet.
"Satellite" is a liftoff featuring fellow French artist Fairly Boy. The song draws you into the irresistibly catchy and shimmery guitar riffs and warm synth layers of a universe that doesn't disappear when the music ends, thanks in part to its melody of a hook. Complimenting Claudet's blissful sensitivity and energetic rhythm sense, Fairly Boy introduces a self-assured casualness that balances and mulls over the track's smoothness against its rawness.
"Satellite" is the sort of track you'll want to play loud on a midnight road trip or during a rare moment alone with headphones on, wistful but hopeful, earthbound but hovering. The production is clean, and everything, including the vocals and the dreamy instrumental breaks, can breathe and land.
Tom Claudet remains true to his roots, creating personal and universal music. With "Satellite," he and Fairly Boy don't just bring a song but an experience. It's a reflection of the changing nature of the independent French scene but also proof, if proof is needed, that when authenticity meets ambition, the results will be nothing less than stellar.
