Listen: Amateur Best – “Create Your Love” (ft. Empress Of)
Joe Flory knows a thing or two about duets. Responsible for possibly one of the most overlooked pop jams of the 21st century – ‘The Blues’ – his duet with The Cardigans’ Nina Persson under his long abandoned Primary 1 project.
The Amateur Best man hooked up with Empress Of (pictured) during a brief trip to London whilst the young Brooklynite was promoting her debut EP. The resulting track, ‘Create Your Love’, is a delightfully light and fun slice of optimism. Flory’s vocals the perfect accompaniment for Empress Of’s Lorely Rodriguez and her airy, flighty tones.
Featured on the recently released Double Denim Records compilation (reviewed here), listen to the sprightly ‘Create Your Love’ below. And, just for the hell of it, reaquaint yourself with the Nina Persson duet here. Some things are too good to be forgotten.
