Cassie // King Of Hearts

After months of waiting after Cassie’s new single was announced, I posted the Sam Young remix of “King Of Hearts”. I thought it was good, but just a little bit lacking compared to the version used in the track’s trailer.

But finally, after years of waiting for Cassie to release a new single, we’ve got the full radio version of “King Of Hearts”. When I first played the song I wasn’t that impressed. It didn’t sound anything like the trailer and was all a bit too empty to be honest. But after a few plays I just got the song, and can’t stop playing it right now.

Sounding like an Eastern European dance record made by the likes of Inna, “King Of Hearts” starts pretty sparsely with hand claps and a simple synth beat. A heavy bassline kicks in before the some synths kick in and it all gets going. But the highlight of the song would have to be the middle 8 and the final chorus, with that amazing build up and explosion of synths. “King Of Hearts” may not be the most original of songs, but it’s a top quality dance track, and shows that Cassie isn’t for messing around this time.
