CLARENS is the musical alias of French producer, Ousseynou Cissé. He has this real natural knack for creating a special kind of bedroom pop; one that sounds hazy, dreamy, poppy dance-y and spacey, all in one sitting.

His latest track, ‘Trust’ is set to be released through Partyfine (Yuksek Presents) on the 12th of May.

‘Trust’ is this absolutely gorgeous fusion of beats and tones, which are further heightened by the stunning application of vocals. The backing vocals work entirely in accentuating the beauty of the leads, and they really work to make this a precious track.

There is not a touch of severity in this at all, and it all works to make you feel like you’re in a heightened state of unconsciousness, what with the sounds and textures. By the end of the track, you feel to be somewhat in a state of a serene kind of bliss.

I think CLARENS has truly worked to the highest possible standard here. This track just glows, and there’s something very comforting about its feel.
