Norwegian producer Coucheron teams with ARY for the huge "High By The Riverside"
Having already provided the production behind the wonderful "Childhood Dreams", Coucheron has teamed up with fellow Norwegian ARY once more on a brand new single.
"High By The Riverside" is very much the sound of 21st century dance pop; 808s blare across the track, with Coucheron adding an array of speaker-bouncing synths sounds, and adding plenty of drops for good measure.
And then there's the voice of ARY. While her vocals are occasionally given some pitch-bending treatment by Coucheron, the singer is allowed to give her lightest pop vocal to date and it perfectly suits the song's summery vibes.
"I’ve been fortunate to work a lot with ARY this past year, mostly on her stufff," Coucheron tells us. "But in this case we both felt this would be a song for me. I immediately bonded with the storytelling in this song, and felt it belonged in my universe, so I did my best to compliment her beautiful vocals."
