Dirty Hit's latest signing The Japanese House unveils second single "Pools To Bathe In".
Utilizing a loping fingerpicking guitar that recalls labelmate Marika Hackman's "Drown" and an appreciation for autotuned monosyllabic notes, 19-year-old Amber Bain's "Pools To Bathe In" is constructed like an OC Mix fan's wet dream, a brilliant mash-up of the best elements of early Iron and Wine and Imogen Heap. Listen below.
