Renowned Dutch DJ, songwriter, and producer SACO has released a new track entitled “I Need a Clue.” Let's get into its details. “I Need A Clue” is a wonderfully written single which utilizes the metaphor of a riddle to describe a confusing relationship. There is a tension and disconnect within this romance, and the lyrics play into these complicated feelings, “Your head on my shoulder, your hand in mine / Yet it’s all far from where it should.” At its core, the song understands the feeling of love is present, but does not know how to move forward under the current circumstances. Comprehensively, this single is about the emotional rollercoaster which accompanies an unclear relationship. Lyrically, “I Need A Clue” does an excellent job of outlining the frustration and exhaustion which will be relatable for many hopeless romantics.
Now let’s explore how it sounds. “I Need A Clue” is an uplifting blend of folk and electronic dance music. It’s a track which is full of energy. Pippin’s country-style vocals are rich with twang and warmth, this creates a nice contrast to the somewhat electronic instrumentals. The backing track also includes a vibrant guitar sample which contributes to the upbeat instrumentation and joyful feel to the single. Despite its quite introspective lyrics, “I Need A Clue” simultaneously delivers a stylish pop hit you’ll be dancing to in no time. Now let's learn a little more about who made it.
