The singer and songwriter from Holland
known as DishKing has released his latest single, “L'amour C'est
Toi.” The track is a shadowy, blues-fueled song with elements of
1960s French pop which showcases yet another facet of this
multifarious musician, a side which his legion of longtime fans in
Europe and abroad will be enthusiastic to meet. Dark, masculine and
as tonally stylish as it is lyrically evocative, “L'amour C'est
Toi” by DishKing is the latest reason for audiophiles around the
world to introduce themselves to this masterful sculptor of blues,
pop and rock music.
DishKing's former LP albums, “Sell
Yourself in Gold” and “The Power of a Loaded Gun,” were
released under the AG Music umbrella and continue to garner him fans
around the world. His new “L'amour C'est Toi” single joins his
more-recent “101” full-length album – the popularity of which
seems to grow with every passing month – as an independent release
on his own DishKing Records music label.
Asked to describe the theme of his
latest single, “L'amour C'est Toi” (“Love Is You”) DishKing
writes, “Everyone has been or is in love. The song's intention was
to describe the feeling of newfound love, a satisfied moment like
cruising by car with your loved one on a hot summer's day celebrating
the mutual feelings. Taking the bitter and good times for what it is
or was, enjoying the moment of happiness and expressing it.”
DishKing's repertoire is widely varied,
so much so that the artist once commented, “What kind of music? You
tell me. Even more so, if you like it, tell the whole world.”
Nevertheless, he has cited as main artistic influences David Bowie,
Ry Cooder, Daniel Lanois, T-Bone Burnett, Johnny Cash, Quentin
Tarantino, Goldfrapp, Elvis Presley, Mark Lanegan, and the Queens of
the Stone Age. Whether or not his fans will be surprised at the
nuances à la Serge
Gainsbourg in his new single is anyone's guess – but it's
absolutely certain that they're going to love it. “L'amour C'est
Toi,” indeed.
“L'amour C'est Toi” by DishKing is
available online worldwide. Get in early, music fans. Very early.
