Single Review – Love Like Woe – The Ready Set
I’ve been looking for new beats to stack on my summer playlist this week when I found this cool new track , Love Like Woe by The Ready Set.
The Ready Set is the stage name of Jordan Witzigreuter (hope I spelled that right), a 20-year old electronica singer from Fort Wayne, Indiana. He is signed to Decaydance Records, home of Hey Monday, Cobra Starship and Panic! at the Disco.
The new single came as quite a surprise. The catchy, funky tune immediately caught on. I haven’t had the same genuine excitement for a song since I heard Fireflies in the mall last year. Its chillaxing vibe is perfect for the summer.
The Ready Set’s style has some similarities to Owl City, both synthpop-electronic type singers with feelgood tunes, though the former has a more hiphop influence and significantly more Auto-Tune. Think Owl City synths+Black Eyed Peas Auto-Tune+Justin Bieber beat+Metro Station voice.
