San Mei – Revel

Originally published on Alt Media

The new single from Gold Coast pop starlet San Mei is a great example of the growth of an artist. Throughout the three minutes and nine seconds of ‘Revel’ you are treated to a much more matured sound that somehow walks the tightrope between brooding darkness and joyous indie-pop delight.

‘Revel’s production is also a step in the right direction with warm, charming guitars balancing with the drum beats and other musical elements in a very polished professional manner. San Mei’s vocals are also a highlight of the track with her dreamy voice engulfing you in a warming hug that you never want to escape.

San Mei is certainly an act you want to keep an eye on as ‘Revel’ is a track which I would have expected from an act with a much larger following, so I would not be surprised to see rapid growth in the near future.
