It has been ages since I've heard or stumbled upon the name Aqualung, so finding out that the producer is releasing a new track featuring my all-time voice crush Lianne La Havas made the post-waking up from another weird nightmare slightly better (yeah, it's 6:45AM and I should go back to sleep).

The piano-driven tune kicks off with a perfect match between Lianne's echoing humming samples in the background and Matt's vocals which feel really, really sad. I could probably go on and on how beautiful the whole composition is and the whole vocals interplay, but I guess you'll hear that yourselves. I just want to share with you the so-needed peacefulness this tune brought to me.

I'm featuring a lot of music, which I obviously enjoy, but this piece of art makes me feel something I haven't felt in a long time and yeah, I cannot be more excited for Aqualung's 10 Futures album coming up soon.
