It’s been a hot minute since we’ve heard from Winston Surfshirt, but now he’s back with another glittery disco-fuelled track called ‘BOOTS’ you’ll no doubt be hearing on every dance floor this summer.
With a throbbing beat, vibrant synths, and a slick bass line that swims smoothly through Winston Surfshirt’s signature vocals, ‘BOOTS’ is really a combination of vintage vibes and warm sunshine. The melody is lightly textured, flows so effortlessly, and is the perfect re-introduction to Winston Surfshirt and his unique style of production.
“BOOTS is a party. I wrote this with a couple mates/producers OSWRLD and Beso Palma at my studio 10 months ago. We wanted something upbeat and nostalgic, and this one came up really quickly. It was done in a few hours. We put the beat together and started messing about over a loop, added some keys, bass and a pair of kid’s bongos. We wanted something sorta 00s disco, a bit Miami bassy, lyrically one of those songs that wrote itself – sometimes I’ll have a melody in my head that will stick with me until the right music presents itself and this was definitely one of those cases with the chorus – it’s like a magic to me that I can’t explain or show, like it’s only for me and when that piece or idea you have fits to something, it’s that abracadabra.” – Winston Surfshirt
