On Motivate Me, Drew Chale is able to blend together stark, New Wave-inspired backing synths with a touching, emotive set of vocals. Hints of Devo and Simply Red can be heard here. Motivate Me is one of those rare tracks where listeners will be able to pick up something considerably different when they decide to focus on the instrumental or vocal side of things. What Chale contributes to music generally is a unique usage of time signatures; Motivate Me is one of those efforts that could garner alternative radio airplay while appeasing even the most jaded music aficionados. Give the track a spin below.
