Diggin’ This: Tomas Barfod – “Better Than I Would” (rAHHH Remix) (Friends of Friends)
Having been an advocate of the musical output of both Copenhagen’s Tomas Barfod and London’s rAHHH for quite some time now, I am therefore reasonably and understandably overjoyed to hear their talents collide on this jaunty and cheerfully experimental rework of “Better Than I Would.”

Shakers and more shakers, clean guitar pickings, cleaner piano treadings, and the looped sung vocal line of the track’s title all weave in and out of each other before a sharp whistle at 1min 34min signals that it’s time for the party to pick up and the song joyfully careens across the musical map fueled by a funk bass guitar run and brighter-than-the-sun synth keys.
