Marcus McCoan is an absolute magician with his vocal performance on ‘Try Me’. The contemporary pop artist from Cornwall brings out a distinctively modern yet palatial sounding piece that’s absolutely enthralling. It’s got an ever so infectious and lustrous chorus line, made all the more engaging by his vocal inflections and the sheer lusciousness of the production. Everything feels full, complete, and immense on this record. There’s a sense of maximal scale to everything on ‘Try Me’, a flourish of so many minute details on the arrangement that combine into this crashing cathartic opus of a tune.
Sitting at this ever so perched confluence of contemporary pop and hyper pop, Marcus McCoan brings the futuristic sounds while retaining the same polished and clean melodic core that contemporary pop allows for. It’s catchy as hell.
