Hey guys, what's up? Soundcloud recently changed their setup and I'm not sure I like it better. First off, they changed the Download button to a downward facing arrow next to the Share button, which makes it harder for me to CTRL+F my way through an artist's page for the free downloads. It adds like two seconds, ugh. In addition, they added a feature in the individual pages of songs; instead of playing the song once through and stopping, Soundcloud now continues to play another song that it thinks is similar. I was unsure if I liked this addition since I often open a page to hear one song and then I'd like to get back to whatever I was playing in my library. Now, I have to close or go back to that tab to stop the continuous play. Again, that's like multiple seconds of work. Anyways I've decided that I'll learn to deal with it because that's exactly how I discovered this gem. I had some other random song playing, and then Soundcloud played this next. It was totally unrelated, but I've had it on repeat for a while now.
Bestfriends is comprised of Nick Scalise and Gregory Shanahan, two acquaintances who are presumably very close. They're based out of Chicago and have only been playing together as Bestfriends for a little over a year by this time. Of the few articles I did find which mentioned them, nearly all of them referred to how 'sexy' their music is. I can't say that was the first thought in my head, but I can see the fun, free spirited appeal of their songs, so that may be a turn on. Regardless, it's worth a listen because you'll be head nodding and vibing out immediately, and reaching for repeat once it's over.
Download 'Just Goodbye' from their Soundcloud and maybe let it keep playing and see what you discover.
