We’re not shy when it comes to our love for Running Touch. He’s impressed us again, and again, and again, earning a title around here as one of Australia’s most gifted producers in the dense crowd of Australian electronic music. His new EP A Body Slow arrives at the tail-end of next month (March 31 to be exact) and includes already-released tracks such as the Hottest 200-charting Aubrey and Courtesy Of, as well as Lovely – the track he’s paired the EP announcement with today. Lovely carries on with the restrained, radio-friendly sound that Running Touch showcased on Aubrey, pairing muffled, echoing vocals with a beat that combines soft piano melodies with soaring vocal samples, crisp percussion and rolling bass. Much like Aubrey, it’s really quite an incredible track, but it’s somewhat impossible to describe exactly why. It’s just got this unmissable groove to it that only Running Touch can pull off, and pull off well.
Anyway, listen to the track below and whilst you’re there, also make sure to catch the tracklisting to his A Body Slow EP (which you can pre-order HERE) and his just-announced tour dates, which includes an EP tour plus dates at Hot Dub Wine Machine and SXSW.
