Sunset Tsunami continue their run of new music with ‘Race The Sun’, the third single from their forthcoming second album. Following ‘Chillaxin’ With Cherry’ and ‘Lemon Drops’, the British/Kiwi duo move further into the warm, sample-driven side of their sound, blending downtempo electronics, live instrumentation and laid-back soul influences.

Built around a relaxed instrumental groove, jazz-inflected guitar and soulful vocal samples, ‘Race The Sun’ draws from the classic downbeat and lounge sound while retaining Sunset Tsunami’s focus on rhythm and atmosphere. There is a nostalgic quality to the production, balanced by a steady groove that keeps the track moving.

Where the previous singles introduced the brighter downtempo and mid-tempo funk elements of the new record, ‘Race The Sun’ takes a smoother approach. Neo-soul warmth, sampled vocals and understated electronic production combine in a track that sits comfortably between lounge, instrumental hip-hop and downtempo electronica.

‘Race The Sun’ offers another glimpse into Sunset Tsunami’s forthcoming second album, a project built around electronic production, live instrumentation and the duo’s continued exploration of lounge, soul, dub and beat-driven music.
