“Paradigm” - Heron

Heron’s “Paradigm” is the kind of track that makes you feel like you’re straddling two timelines: one foot in a ’60s jazz lounge, the other in a futuristic, neon-soaked cityscape. True to his reputation for tearing up genre boundaries and stitching them back together into something entirely his own, the UK artist, songwriter, and producer has delivered an uptempo, synth-heavy, psychedelic-pop gem that somehow manages to be both introspective and ready for the dance floor.
