Maddie McLeod Reviews Clayton Morgan ‘The Beat Is Calling Me’ (out November 12th)

Clayton Morgan’s up and coming song (out November 12th), The Beat Is Calling Me, successfully fuses a Duke Dumont, eighties house vibe with off kilter melodies reminiscent of Milky Chance. Driving the momentum forward, the spacey synth lays perfectly with little overlaying pops of modulation. The build up to the drop is consistent and expected; however, the drop manages to remain distinct and maintain its unique audio-visuals and concept. Morgan’s lyrics are simple as they take a comfortable back seat to the actual rhythm of the song (a clever choice). Yet when Morgan sings no questions; don’t ask me, he elevates the catchiness and potential of this wonderfully produced track.
