Michl ropes in the help of Mura Masa on electrifying new song "Better With You"
Having already notched up a ridiculous amount of streams on Spotify and touring with the likes of Tove Lo and Broods, Michl has roped in beat connoisseur Mura Masa on production duty for his electronic sunbeam of a track "Better With You".
Centred around a simple, repetitive guitar riff, the song is embellished with layers of soaring synths and electronic gushes that seep in and out, which results in the track feeling as though it is literally transforming before you.
Tinged in the warmth of long summer days, it perfectly articulates the whirlwind experience of falling in love, where nothing else matters apart from those intimate, blissful moments spent together, accentuated by Michl's repeated use of the refrain "This hell feels better with you".
Michl himself has explained how the track goes deep on the immersive adventure of love and all the simplicity it can bring, saying "I tend to overcomplicate everything. But sometimes there isn't much to mess up. When you love and are loved back, everything else becomes irrelevant."
It's an exhilarating listen, where Mura Masa's faultless and immediately recognisable production adds an extra layer of shimmering intrigue to the whole package. It is the first track to come from Michl's upcoming sophomore EP, due out later this year, and marks the beginning of a year that looks like it could be pretty big for the LA-based artist.
