A true summer electro-pop gem, with handclaps and all, just as the sun deserts us

It’s hard to tell if summer is still upon us, or if it buggered off a few weeks ago having allowed us three whole days of sunshine. Either way, Seattle-based duo Beat Connection have managed to bottle some of it up and actually stitch it into the fabric of In The Water. Seagulls squawk melodiously during the intro and there’s much talk about water before the whole thing bursts into life, like the sun suddenly breaking through a grey cloud. There’s a great bit around the 1:50 mark where the handclaps (of course it’s got handclaps in it!) reach a crescendo and the chorus drops and you want to put on some Speedos, run out into the sea and frolic like you’ve never frolicked before. Naturally, it all ends with some steel drums, making this a shoe-in for the next Lilt commercial.

You can not only download In The Water but an entire 8-track EP is available for free from their Band Camp site.

Is this leaked song an old unreleased track or a hint that the singer will finally release a follow up to her 1998 solo album?

Lauryn Hill has been away from music for far too long, so you can’t blame fans for getting excited about the unexpected arrival of a new song. The question is, is the track actually new or an unreleased recording from the late 1990s? Repercussion is a languid, introspective account of Hill’s life with lyrics recalling those on her 1998 album The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill: “I was born into this world, a little ditty baby girl … a racist world, now it’s a difficult process – the matter is of perception.” As it bears the hallmarks of her earlier work, fans are already speculating that it was a reject from The Miseducation … LP, while others suggest the recent confirmation that the singer will play the Rock the Bells tour in the US is a sign she’s about to release new material. Maybe our blog convinced her to up the work rate!
