Leeds indie-pop foursome Clay share "Oxygen", a synthy belter stuffed with hooks
Youthful Leeds quartet Clay have shared new single "Oxygen", a glistening chunk of indie-funk.
The band, only 6 months along, have already garnered support from some big players, including Zane Lowe and Huw Stephens.
"Oxygen" is a funk-laced dance track, designed to make you move in the summer heat. Basslines swerve into the spotlight, guitars flicker á la Jungle (the band cite them as big influences), and the vocals soar up into the heavens - it's simple enough to belt along to, and by the end of its all-too-swift three minutes, it'll be firmly embedded in your head.
