When Poliça released her debut Give You the Ghost in 2k12, I knew, my body was left pleading for more of the chemical reaction, triggered by that bass, simultaneous drumming and vocoded vocals. I’m not even sure, if I pronounce the name correctly, neither will I EVER be able to sing along with the band, however, when I heard their new Tiff (debuted at Coachella) the existence of the human species made sense all at once.

The song is featuring soulful vocal addition from Justin Vernon (Bon Iver), who builds up a breathtaking harmony with haunting hook and raw synths. Poliça has obviously experimented on this one and to me, it turned out to be a very successful attempt.
