MH-093 Steffaloo + Chrome Sparks - Eyes For You  Steffaloo teams up with Chrome Sparks for "Eyes For You" - the first single from her first electronic album, Heart Beats. There is great anticipation for the pairing after the success of their last collaboration, the widely praised "All There Is" which hit #1 on Hype Machine in 2012. The pitch-perfect track does not disappoint. With a nod to Giorgio Moroder, Chrome Sparks uses arpeggiated Italo Disco synths and locked-in four-on-the-floor drums to surround a lovely pop vocal from Steffaloo. The single is bolstered by two remixes. Niva's remix transitions from a vocal breakdown to a dancefloor ready groove and Brothertiger emphesizes the sulty side of the track with thick pads and a classic break. "Eyes For You" is a sublime pairing of talent and one the finest tracks in either Steffaloo or Chrome Spark's growing catalog. |

| Reviews Summary |
| Los Angeles pop vocalist Steffaloo + Chrome Sparks team up for this blissful result 'Eyes For You' - NME / Bursts with life and rhythm - Beats Per Minute / The vocals lay gracefully over the soft synths, melding into a great song that will have you basking in its charm - In Your Speakers |
| Steph Thompson, aka Steffaloo, is set to return with a new record, the all electronic Heart Beats and has just released the first single from it, 'Eyes For You'. It's definitely a departure from her poignantly spare lo-fi guitar based album from last year, Would You Stay. This time, rather than lending her vocals to others in their electronic endeavours, she has reversed the trend and enlisted artists to hers. Again collaborating with Chrome Sparks (Jeremy Malvin), "Eyes For You" is arguably the best track they've done together with its downbeat beginning metamorphising into a measured dance pop gem. Thompson penchant for musical collaboration characterises Heart Beats with each of the 12 all electronic tracks being collaborative works featuring the likes of Bristol producer Stumbleine and Luxembourg based wiz Sun Glitters. Heart Beats will be out through Mush Records on October 29. Much anticipated. - Indie 30 |
