Dev slides through a milky dance studio, plunking away on an ivory grand and then stepping into some Richie/MJ-esque dance moves. Its a simple but effective tune, proving once again that Hynes is the master of culling up a true retro R&B vibe. This is def a good one to check out, you won't be able to hit pause!
