This week's <a title="Featured Track" href="http://www.hiddenshoal.com/category/features-articles/featured-track/">featured track</a> comes via the wonderful dream-gaze of <a title="City of Satellites" href="http://www.hiddenshoal.com/project/city-of-satellites/">City of Satellites</a>. 'BMX' from their brilliant debut album <a title="City of Satellites" href="http://www.hiddenshoal.com/project/city-of-satellites/"><em>Machine Is My Animal</em> </a>is a sublime cut. The song hovers across beds of widescreen synths and levitating rhythm guitar while Jarrod Manual's alto vocals weave through the mix. And then just when you're set in the groove, in comes a dramatic change that never fails to bring me goosebumps. It's such a beautiful pay-off and such smart and affecting songwriting. Be sure to also check out the brilliant music video for the track <a title="BMX Music Video" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3W7HULu_CCc" target="_blank">here</a>.
