Ms. Goulding’s been the artist that producers love to work with for her dreamy voice. She and Kygo team up here on a song to add to the summer soundtrack. Before listening, there was no doubt in my mind that Ellie Goulding’s vocals would pair perfectly with the ‘tropical’ vibes Kygo creates in his music - calming down the world of house music with each track. When people ask me about electronic music, Kygo is my go-to for great reason. His music’s never too up-tempo and he just has a knack for striking a balance between energetic and chill vibes. “First Time” is just another example of Kygo’s mastery, this time including Ellie doing her thing over beachy sounds, singing about teenage nostalgia, compounding a beautiful feeling Kygo’s production often creates on its own. It’s perfect for a car, as kygo and nostalgia so often are, with the added bonus of having a huge place at music festivals across the world. I’m sure all the kids are gonna be dancing to this, in joy, bracing crowded sets. Be happy, be fun, and enjoy.
