'Overreacting' is the new tune from ex-The Neighbourhood drummer Bryan Sammis. After a year-long hiatus, LA-based Sammis is back with his solo project Olivver The Kid and a new EP to boot.
The disco-influenced, super electronic track is a short but sweet slice of 80s infused, sun-drenched pop. The track pulses at an upbeat pace throughout with tambourine driven percussion and synth arpeggios that add to the driving nostalgia of 'Overreacting'.
Sammis says, "the song is about realising the normalisation of art around you. Knowing that artists and peers are capable of showing so much more emotion if they just let themselves go, rather than what they are supposed to do".
The vocals on 'Overreacting' are brilliant, especially on the verses where Sammis shows his knack for a fantastic melody that is as infectious as any other. The control he shows when transitioning from falsetto to full voice is incredible.
On 'Overreacting', Sammis cranks the nostalgia up to the max and the impeccably produced track benefits so much from this. It's short running time ensures people will go back time and time again. This is definitely one for summer, especially with those amazing guitar leads towards the end.
'Overreacting' is out now on the new 'Ego Surfin' EP.
