London’s electropop quartet Hugh fuels a cozy guitar-synth pairing and magnetic vocals in their single “GO.” In a compelling vocal collaboration with Benin City’s Joshua Idehen, the group channels a style and emotion that brings to mind 80’s pop domination, while still sounding subdued and introspective. Singer Izzy Brooks refers to the track’s inspiration as an initial encounter feeling similar to being submerged. She adds “I remember there was green light flooding in from the surface, my lungs hurt and the excitement was so heavy it almost felt like I couldn’t breathe. Though I knew I probably should have jumped out, I stayed down beneath the waves, facing this person who had this hypnotic hold over me – it was crazy”. Sink into Hugh’s “GO” for a brazen and consuming experience below.
