Des, aka the solo outlet for multi-instrumentalist Mike Desmond, recently caught our attention with the bright electro-indie pop of their/his latest single, “Dying Breed.” Are you a fan of Grouplove, Capital Cities, or The 1975? Look no further – Des employs a rolling electro-bassline and neurotic electronic drums with his pleasant take on indie-rocker vocals… Check it out via the widget below. Be sure to drop Des a phat follow on Instagram.
Long Island indie pop newcomer Des brings the electronic spirit to alternative with a video for his single “Don’t You Worry.” As the latest brainchild of long-time songwriter Mike Desmond, Des’ work underlines catchy choruses and enduring hooks, adding some synth-driven sparkle to running bass lines and slick drum tracks. The video takes on the fuzzy aesthetic of old VHS home videos mixed with the kaleidoscopic whimsy of a green screen – definitely an experience for the eyes. “Don’t You Worry” comes from Des’ recently released debut EP Eighty-Six, where you can find more major-league melodies like this one.
