Brought to our attention by the fine and upstanding folks at Swedish new music blog PSL, ORKID is the brand new project from one Niklas Tjäder (the brother of Daniel Tjäder, he of The Radio Dept. / Korallreven).
Featuring guest vocals from Andrea Hatanmaa, “Games” is an ice cold slab of modern R&B: all spare rhythms, cooing vocals and handclaps – all crowned with a delightful slide guitar refrain.
Listen below.
