By now you should know I get down for any and all Calvin Harris. The dude makes music that just fucking resonates. So of course I got hyped when I read the Scottish supernova was going to be releasing new material, his first since last year’s smash “How Deep Is Your Love.”
Looking to capture lightning in a bottle twice, the universe-renowned producer reunites with “We Found Love” confidante Rihanna for “This Is What You Came For,” a euphonious introduction to the sunny season. Dabbling in subtle trop-influences, the radio-ready cut isn’t the banger you might have been expecting given the duo’s last collaboration. Still, it maintains an established dancefloor credibility thanks to the accessible pop-house flow and lasting hook.
No word on where this will land, but the smart money is on Harris’ follow up to 2014’s Motion. For now you’ll just have to join me in spinning this one all Summer long:
