Dance, Sway, Repeat: The Electrifying Vibes of 'Scenes from a Rooftop'
Today, Dutch Crooner Dennis Van Aarssen and Black Tie Affair release their submission for the song of the summer, “scenes from a rooftop.”
Listeners are first greeted with percussive piano notes, letting the audience knows this track is meant to be danced to. Sonically, one finds the essence of the Dean Martin classic, “Sway.” The record verifies why the blend of Black Tie Affairs electronic flavor and Dennis’ foundation in jazz makes for a sensational musical cocktail. If you took their song “Meet Me In Miami” and mixed with their track “She Can Make The Rain Go,” the result would be the zesty track, “scenes from a rooftop.” Dennis’ vocals add that brightness and flirty nature that complements the lyrics. The horn section and brass have their moment to shine all across the number, and ties everything together like a beautiful flight of mixed drinks.
“scenes from a rooftop” follows Black Tie Affair and Dennis’ collaboration in 2023, “Lifeline.” It also follows the release of Dennis’ fourth studio album, Just Call It Love. Later this fall, Dennis will make his performance debut in UK at The Pheasantry in London.
If you're looking for a danceable summer smash to add to that "Espresso" Sabrina Carpenter loop, look no further! You'll dance, you'll sway, and you'll work up that summer sweat to an absolute banger.
