UMI – “whatever u like”
“whatever u like” is buzzy and free, like loose limbed massages from lovers who don’t leave, and petals on breezes. Likewise, UMI’s voice is dipped in sunshine and this groove is so easy you can’t help but let go and rock with it.

Why is Jonah Kagen trying to make us fall in love somewhere between Cali and “Barcelona”? You’re about to find out for yourself, because we don’t have answers but we know we like it.

It’s a slow jam that amps up to an all out flail and then smooths out to fade away.
