MP3: The Glass - "Four Four Letter"

I don't really party. I don't live it up on the weekends. I'm in my early 20s (uh oh, now you know). I'm not on the market. I'm not trying to mingle in the bar/club scene -- that is to say I don't go downtown to hit up the bars. When I go downtown, I tend to only have one destination in mind: my favorite record shop. I'd say the closest I come to that whole bar/club scene is listening to music that might be blared in such venues.

Enter The Glass, a New York/Berlin duo featuring Dominique Keegan & Glen "DJ Wool" Brady, with their new single "Four Four Letter." It's a perfect fusion of disco, dance, electro pop, and pop that throws you on the dance floor with a rich bass riff, layers of synth, unrelenting drums/percussion, and soft-spoken vocals that lay casually against the energetic backdrop. It's a textured, layered journey through highs and lows of some wild evening spent downtown that packs a lot in before you realize the ride has come to an end.
