Live Review: Dugong Jr 'Fish Tears'

18 November 2014 | 5:39 am | Lauren Payne

We always need regular doses of Dugong Jr's work and today he has released a brand new original track for us called 'Fish Tears'.

Since remixing MIAMI HORROR's track 'Real Slow', we've needed regular doses of DUGONG JR's work and today he has released a brand new original track for us called 'Fish Tears'.

The Melbourne-based producer has already proved that he has strong remixing skills, but with this new original track now out in the world, DUGONG JR seems like he's ready to take over.

The track is to be featured on a compilation tape that Poland-based DJs FLIRTINI have created called Heartbreaks & Promises. The tape features a variety artists that FLIRTINI play during their live DJ sets including CASHMERE CAT, but we have a feeling that 'Fish Tears' will be the track everyone will be attracted to.

'Fish Tears' features a very high-pitched vocal track that opens the song alongside a series of squeaking samples before the beat finally takes over. Once the beat is in place, the song really begins to build and finally climax into a world of child-like samples and twinkling synths that create a very fun melody to listen to. 'Fish Tears' sounds like a rainbow of sound, with every single element feeling vibrant and full of life. If this song didn't have it's sturdy structure it wouldn't flow as well as it does and it shows that DUGONG JR really knows how to keep his songs standing strong whilst having fun with the writing process.

You can pre-order the Heartbreaks & Promises mixtape here but be sure to keep an eye out for more DUGONG JR originals as well.
