I think It is fair to say that Cale Hawkins is a veritable swiss army knife of talent. Not only did the Brooklyn-based artist record and produce pretty much every sound on “Deep Dream” (with the exception of the Violin, played by frequent collaborator Chase Potter) but he is also responsible for the accompanying animated video.
“Deep Dream” touches on topics of depression, insomnia and anxiety but if you were to just casually listen to the track you may not pick up on that immediately. Over a bed of subtle keys, cunning touches of the aforementioned violin and a hypnotic bass line, the track offers a dreamy quality that is akin to the sleep the lyrics so desire.
Hawkins plans a new single release every two months in 2018, with the March single recently dropping. Judging by his past output and incredible pop sensibilities you will also wanna check out what’s next.
