DF3’s debut single Tell Me left me wanting more. The artists/producer trio began work on their first album this year, and Tell Me is a preview of the Alternative-synth-pop sound of DF3. Sound familiar?
Despite residing in the same genre as Bastille, this group’s sound is distinctive in the vocals and heavier reliance on the synth-aspect of their music. Tell Me gets a bit chaotic and hard to understand at points, but you cannot say it isn’t catchy.
DF3 almost reminds me of a male CHVRCHES, really. The only difference is that the male vocals aren’t like listening to a cheese-grater rubbing against a production and voice-editing set. The hook features a huge build-up, while each verse has a consistent outline that makes it easy to pick up the tune. I find this song easy to listen to and replay, especially when the chorus explodes out of the first couple of verses.
Overall, I would rate the song at:
9.5/10
This is an excellent step forward for DF3, and this track should be shared. The Synth-Pop/Alternative trend is coming alive and an excellent example of doing it right is Tell Me. I definitely recommend not sleeping on it.

Don’t worry, this one will be going on the new Current AMP Favorites playlist soon enough (emphasis on the word new, announcement coming soon). You can stream the debut single below:
