MUMBAI: Chicago artists Gilligan Moss have joined forces with Swedish DJ and producer duo Rebecca & Fiona on new single ‘Ferris Wheel’, out now.
Channelling a wistful, end-of-summer vibe, ‘Ferris Wheel’ is centered around bouncy percussion, driving kick drums and the alluring vocals of Rebecca & Fiona – a warm track while also a bit bittersweet looking back on the last few months of unprecedented times.
“This song is an ode to a lost season; a ferris-wheel view of a summer that never quite materialized,” the guys explain. “Since our beaches and carnivals were closed this summer, this song is filled with the phantom smell of corn-dogs, funnel cakes and cotton candy. As we move into autumn, it can be a bit of a token of a season gone by.”
