"We're holdin' on"
This song is going to start off a little slow and Beach Boys-esque (big surprise with the title, right?), but stick with it. As soon as the 23 second mark kicks in, the track reveals itself as a punchy disco number halfway between Justice's D.A.N.C.E. and something you'd expect from artists like Tommy Sparks and MGMT. Rich Aucoin is a Canadian musician specializing in a sort of retro pop that includes elements of many legendary bands (Beach Boys certainly being one). This track is from his recent EP, which features a 3D cover and music video. But beyond the gimmicks, this song is a catchy, euphoric piece of pop perfect for the summer. Oh, and in case you were wondering, the A.L.i.V.E. does stand for something. All Living Instantly Vanquish Everything. Make of that what you will.
