Soft Launch Add Funky ‘Milkshakes’ To Host Of New Singles Released This Year

Featuring groovy basslines, shiny guitar tones and impressive vocals, ‘Milkshakes’ is a smooth, refreshing release by Anglo-Irish pop five-piece Soft Launch. This latest single is a stylistic extenuation of their previous releases this year, and features similar spacey, high-pace sounds, keeping the summer feels going into chilly Autumn. 

The chorus is vibrant and catchy, and the verses help build up the tension towards the funky bridge. Produced by Spike Stent, the track has a very analogue feel, and is sonically well balanced. The punchy bass is the star of the show, and is allowed to fluidly riff throughout the three minute and 17 second track.
