O Slow – “Do U See Me?”

The latest single off of O Slow’s newly released three track single Every Time I Look In The Mirror, is “Do You See Me.” We’ve covered O Slow before on the Blog (here) and continue to be impressed by Brooklyn based Jacqui Miranda’s impressive control of sounds and beats.

It was a good type of disconcerting that made me feel the unease Jacqui delivers throughout the track. You can hear this and more over on Soundcloud or Spotify. Also be[...]
