How To Sing Well


Tom Krell is definitely not your regular type of artist, and if you googl his name, or his musical project's name, How to Dress Well, you'll most likely approve. Or maybe the lack of information about him is due to the fact that he's somehow a newbie, considering the fact he decided to share his tunes recently (in October of last year, to be more specific). But apparently he thought that playtime is over as he is releasing a 7", called Ready For the World (apparently, he's more than determined).

The title might suggest a very realistic, straight-in-your-face approach, but the reality is different. The song has a very chill instrumental, with dreamy, misterious voices, and it makes you want to sit on your couch/bed/carpet in the dark, smoke a cigarette and forget about everything. And if you listen to it in the middle of the day, it makes you want to close your window and pull the curtain down. It also has a sensual (and sexual) touch (the repetitive beat in the background is the one to blame). The remix is basically the same thing, with just a few additional elements added, but if you liked the song, I don't think you'll find this disturbing.

So yeah, he seems to be ready for the world. For the musical world, at least.
