Don Josef captures the soul, nostalgia, and romance of France with a sensational new release, “Paris.” In this song, you will find R&B and soul blended in experimental waltz rhythms, trumpet, and electric guitar.
“Paris” wastes no time in transporting you to the streets of the French capital. The capital is known as the city of love. The city’s romantic architecture and culture of the city incites a romantic ambiance. The titular song carries a similar vibe. It reflects the city’s romantic sorrow with its musicality. It has waltz rhythms that shimmers with elegance. Meanwhile, trumpets, as usual, punctuate the air with a thick romance.
Then there’s the electric guitar, whose driven buzz you can’t go without. The riffs add a full and thick texture to the arrangement. But it’s the heavy, glitzy beats that you will mostly remember the song for. They will pulsate all the love in your heart to aching echoes, propel you to whatever your heart desires, and ground you toward your connection. The catchy rhythm is the boost you deserve.
The song would be incomplete without Don Josef’s vocals, regardless of the beats, the horns, and the rhythms. His voice is irreplaceable with a smooth, tender warmth. It is emotive, and it engages seductively. They are the soul of the song, and he delivers them with a captivating and seductive accentuation. It’s wholesome and unique. It’s almost unlike anything you have heard before. There’s a reason for that. And it’s Edith Piaf. The entire song was inspired by the idea in Edith Piaf’s 1951 timeless classic, “Sous le ciel de Paris.”
If you’re a fan of soulful R&B, “Paris” should be on your playlist.
