Cris Cap bring his own flavour to R&B and jazz. The fusion is something of his own concoction, creating a rendezvous with the listener. Memorable for its hooks and soothing, silky transitions, you can listen to the composer’s double A side here. This one is called Don’t You Cry.
Both the songs are collaborations with vocalist Tyla Raé, who delivers the lyrics with a passion. There is a velveteen feel to the retro track, you can almost hear the tape rolling. The music maker from Düsseldorf, Germany has created many memorable singles, which deliver this kind of party tune with ease.
