Can't Hold Me Down
"The Soundtrack of Your Life"  | DAY 15
"Can't Hold Me Down" by GRiZ feat. Tash Neal
I found this song on a video game trailer of all places. There was a trailer for Borderlands 3 last year and it was set to this song, which I instantly fell in love with. There's just so much going on, from an electric guitar to a soulful saxophone to funky electronic beats. GRiZ actually self-describes his sound as future-funk, which I suppose is appropriate, and he's known for putting saxophone instrumentation into his songs.
For me, this is along the lines of my first song of this year's Soundtrackers, "Highway Tune" by Greta Van Fleet. This is a song that I don't often listen to in the course of playing my daily current playlist, but it's definitely a song I keep around when I want to get pumped up. Whether that's staying alert while driving, or while exercising, it's got a ton of energy to it and I often find myself playing it in times where I need a little pick me up. I've also found quite a few other songs by GRiZ that also fit that bill; he has such a unique sound that I find myself if not outright enjoying then at least appreciating the artistry in his work... which is not something you can always say about DJs and electronic music producers.
