Chicane is back

British phenomena Chicane is back. Who is he? Well, his real name is Nick Bracegirdle and you might remember hits such as “Saltwater” and “Offshore”. Or maybe the song “Don’t give it up” he did with Bryan Adams supplying the vocals.

Either way, since 1997 Chicane have given the world chill-out, dance and generally serene sounds of harmony. This latest offering is no different. Once again he has taken something a bit magical and worked his own magic on it.

Iceland isn’t know for that many music stars. Björk, Sugarcubes and… Sigur Ros. The latter has done a really beautiful song named “Hoppipolla” which is the one Chicane has reworked and changed the name to “Poppiholla”.

Has it been worth it? Well, you be the judge. Me, I kinda like it.

The video isn’t very original but the melody itself is still nice and easy on the ears. So thumbs up from me.
