MUSIC WATCH 1: Great Good Fine OK

This is the first week of Music Watch, the weekly article where I choose a song that I like from an extremely wide variety of music and feature it. I intend to make the selection very diverse. For example, one day I might feature Bach, with ‘Minuet in G Minor,’ and then the next week I might jump to Paolo Nutini with ‘New Shoes,’ or Feed Me with ‘Patience,’ or even Alan Fitzpatrick with ‘In the Beginning.’ But for the first week, I have chosen the band Great Good Fine OK, with the song ‘You’re The One For Me.’

Great Good Fine OK is a group from Brooklyn. Their music tends to be pop and rock-influenced, with electronic elements. The like to use retro synths and drum samples and falsetto vocals. ‘You’re The One For Me’ is my favorite of their tracks. It is mixed perfectly, with the vocals being backed by a pulsing synth and deep pads.
