Les Imprimes - With You B/ W Only Love [7"]

Les Imprimés is back in the studio working on their sophomore album and treats us to a smashing two-sider with the first two songs from these sessions.   The A side “With You” is an instant hit for the DJs and dance floors. An uptempo, uplifting tune about a fleeting encounter that leaves you craving more. Frontman Morten Martens doesn’t waste a word over the shuffling drums and dancing piano lines. He sings about the pleasantly surprising impact of a chance encounter with a woman, whom he winds up pining for. Martens longs for her, but joyfully, as if just remembering such a connection is possible is what he really needed.  The B side “Only Love” is built over a gritty, punchy drum break with a chorus that is simple yet profound, and the arrangement leans into the message. Martens sings of letting go of inhibition and fear and allowing love to have a chance to thrive. “Only love can set us free…”
