Bonifacio
Retriever feat. Blondino
Retriever is a Paris-based dream pop trio with members from France, Sweden and Belgium. Their earlier releases were in English, so "Bonifacio," featuring the singer Blondino, is their first song in French. The two acts met at a festival in Corsica, and the song is named after Bonifacio, a town on the white cliffs at the island's southern tip.
I don't speak French, so I can't tell you what it's about. What I can tell you is that it has a round bassline, reverb-soaked guitars and two voices wrapped around each other, and I'm on my third listen through it. That's a higher bar than it sounds, give it a listen!
