about
The blissful Light Up is salute's first new material since the release of his 'My Heart' mini-album last summer and sees him combine his unmistakable songwriting & production skills with Liv Dawson's silky, soulful vocals to stunning effect.
Light Up is another fine example of salute's instinctive skill at combining soulful melodies & intricate instrumentals to create unique, genre blurring electronica.
Describing the track, salute explains himself in a newfound positive mind-set, pronouncing it as "an ode to being happy", before going on to explain "I've become a much more joyful person over the past year and it is starting to manifest in the music I’ve been making. This record took me a long time to complete so I'm glad it's finally out there"
Hailing from Vienna and now living in Manchester, salute had a landmark year in 2016 dropping his 'My Heart' mini-album to plaudits from the likes of Pitchfork, Crack Magazine and The FADER, who called it a "blitz of colourful melodies and pop vocals".
The release featured contributions from a wealth of talent salute connected with in the writing process such as Leeds based artist/producer Krrum, Brooklynite KAMAU and the enigmatic D.R.A.M., who teamed up with salute on the project͛s lead single One More Chance, a collaboration which saw the pair record a special session for FACT TV at Maida Vale.
