Peter Ricq and Robbie Slade, the Canadians behind indie-electronic act Humans, are back. The band’s latest single “Let Go,” a previously unreleased song from the sessions that produced their 2018 LP Going Late<\/a><\/em>, features their signature mix of electronic soundscapes and Slade’s tactile, chill-wave vocals. It’s a more subtle form of their usual club-ready fare, a song meant for clandestine camaraderie under diffused lights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The single features fellow Canadian musician Cayley Thomas<\/a>, a collaboration that the band’s producer Nik Kozub (Noontide, The feels EP, Water Water, and Going Late LP<\/em>) brought in. The song takes a full minute to boil: Slade’s voice enters the scene around the one minute mark, Thomas following suit around four minutes in. “Enjoy your life\/And hold your breath for a minute\/We’re gonna roll\/If you’ve a car, go get in it\/We’ll take a ride, but make sure there’s room for two,” Thomas sings sullenly, giving off the aura of the cool art school chick smoking a blunt on the back porch of a party. The conversation between her and Slade is like a dance down a narrow hallway, tightly wound with little release. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
