‘Blinding Lights’, by The Weeknd, was basically the soundtrack to last year’s summer. It was a party-starter at a time when we weren’t able to have parties. Sonically it wasn’t so much a clash of genres but rather a coming together of them; new wave-inspired synthpop, electro-funk, hip-hop, Caribbean music, dark club music, and anything else that made us want to get up and dance. The track has spawned many covers, and probably the most creative one you’ll hear is this beachside instrumental reinterpretation from Faizan, along with saxophonist Husen, two of the best-known musical artists from The Maldives.
