'Youth' is the latest track from "tequilia and steak" loving Newcastle indie five-piece Dalaro.The signature hyper active catchiness of the five-piece, has been switched for a more chilled but still very catchy vibe. The track is fuelled by a simple high pitched synth loop, elevated by a blanket of steady percussion, whirring synth textures and a more reserved guitar and bass. The repetitive chorus of "can you give me an ocean" makes the song very upbeat and incredibly easy to sing along to.
The overall sound is more akin to electro-pop than indie, but I'm sure the group have enough edgy t-shirts and denim articles to maintain their indie-rep and fan base.
The song is a solid pop tune and will undoubtedly get crowds dancing and singing along. After seeing the group perform at the 'O2 Academy is 10' gig last October I'm sure the band will continue to excite audiences and perhaps this slight change in sound will assist them in maintaining vitality and variety in their set.
