“Can I get you right? / Can I hold you tight?” Yes and yes! Dutch 🇳🇱 DJ and producer Chris Stussy (Niels Christian Steenbergen) brings the sweet vibes to “Believe in Yourself”. Also, the positivity is a plus, too. “Believe in Yourself” is the 13th track from his debut album, Lost, Found & Forgotten… on his own label, Up The Stuss 🔥. Stussy wrote and produced this near four-and-a-half-minute dance bop.
Chris Stussy puts some serious work in behind the boards. The groove is nothing short of awesome, inciting uncontrollable body movement. The electronics – the synths – are cleverly integrated, colorful, rhythmic, and most of all, striking. Stussy is intentional with his choices, and he makes all of the right ones with this sound palette. He sets up his vocalist, Ashwini Natarajan, for undeniable success. The lyrics are few for Natarajan to paint with her pipes, but she sounds amazing. Powerhouse performance? No, but her breathy, calm, cool, and collected vocals pack a meaningful punch, nonetheless. To reiterate, the positivity of this belief song is a big deal. Ashwini informs us, “Remember you’re godly.” Providing further support, she asserts, “Sending my love into the night / Believe in yourself, ‘cause I do.” Word. Best experienced by talking in its scintillating musical greatness, “Believe in Yourself” is nothing short of being utterly sublime.
