Ben Khan, the elusive, futuristic-sounding and rather mysterious singer/producer from London, is back with yet another head-bopping tune to satisfy our fiendish appetites. Youth starts off slow and gentle, dripping in synth and intercepted with some striking guitar riffs that scream, “Fuck Yeah! Blade Runner……and stuff”. This only lasts for a dreamy moment before the beat tricksily drops into a nice summery “hand in hand with the girl you love” vibe or some cheesy shit like that (but who doesn’t like a bit of cheddar every now and then?)
Seriously though, it’s another obvious classic from Mr Khan. Personally, I prefer the dark, almost apocalyptic sound of one of his earlier songs – Eden, but it’s nice to know that he is able to switch things up.
