"Dawn Drake's new single "Thinking about you" is an electro-acoustic and melancholy tune that was written in memoriam of those who have been lost to the global pandemic and other circumstances. It is a memorial to all of those who have transitioned before we were ready for them to go. The soundscape of the tune fits right in with current zouk and reggaeton rhythms from the Caribbean, with some unexpected additions of ukulele, conga, Nirvana-esque guitars and electro effects that are fresh and bring to mind Vampire Weekend and MGMT. Produced by Noah Dreiblatt (Karikatura, Scynthian), this new sound  and collaboration promises that more will follow."
