Slim Labidi relights the summer vibes, with the instantly catchy and uplifting groove and melody of Caliente En La Pista.
Featuring an intoxicating off-beat rhythm and tones in keeping with the afrobeat and dancehall sounds of the summer, Caliente En La Pista goes on to weave in a smooth to impassioned vocal lead from Slim Labidi. What begins as a simply likable piece of music, soon becomes an energetic and potential floor-filler of an anthem – a song with a chorus and peak that’s infectious, and which elevates the whole track to memorable new plains.
Songwriting strength is essential these days, the production and vocals can be found and favoured, but a structurally secure and catchy written work, with plenty of contrast to let key moments hit with lasting impact, is absolutely crucial for modern artists. In this case, Slim Labidi achieves a perfect chemistry of elements – a varied melody and performance style, a strong underlying beat, and fragments of additional production and instrumental expression that add further dynamic.
It’s a winning combination of traits, and once it hits the right playlists, there’s no doubt we’ll be hearing more of this one over the coming weeks.
