Cling Review by Noisyzine
This is the perfect soundtrack for a chill out session, however according to the band’s bio, their live set varies from up tempo to downbeat depending on the occasion, making Cling the perfect band...

Goovyshoes Review by cuemix-magazine.com
Ahhh, this refreshing music! Cling from Great Britain. With their newest release called “Groovyshoes” they prove that laid-back sound aren’t just made to use it as background music. Cling did the impossible possible by using kind of ambient rhythms merged with a fat rich sound near to cinematic sound. With the wonderful voice of Susi Lavender this music becomes its “special” sound. I don’t like comparisons but Cling are somewhere between Lamb and Jazzanova, but they own a very unique musical identity. Their sound is so relaxed on one side, but on the other this is music that disperses a refreshing and enthusiastic feeling. Music that’s good to dance and listen too. Balsam for the soul without getting lost in weak sounds. Wonderful how they create music with identity and message that will make your day. A great EP that makes the listener hungry for the next album…. Wonderful one!

Losing Today Review by Losing Today Magazine
Hi-fi say yes, damn this is good. Cling are (hard to believe) an as yet unsigned boy / girl duo - Gerald Patient and Susan Lavender who certainly know – (judging on the evidence of these two cuts) – a thing or two about honing and craftily arranging and displacing moods with gloriously prickling tonal textures and cutely locking them down amid backdrops of multi generic electronic crossovers. Their sound is the galactic mid way point between the achingly tender and candidly cured pop effervescence of Dubstar and the glacial after hours shadowy sophistication of Sarah Blackwood’s post indie infatuation of the Kling Klang inspired Client. ‘Abandoned’ is deliciously soothing, in a sultry late night chilling way, a tastily tempered torch like pocket pop dynamo that mooches majestically orbiting around an arresting montage of high rise block derived Massive Attack elements weaved around subtle jazz accents and wrapped up with fatly robust squelching clicks and seductive key swirls that cross the threshold between being the cool to name check property of the club cognoscenti and wider commercial appeal. ‘Luna C’ is similarly crafted but with a darker heart, this time it’s a more intimate affair set off by a flood of twinkling spacey textures with Susan’s vocal hanging angelically in the ether and capturing that same ability to shift between bitter and sweet emotions at the blink of an eye as that of Melys’ Andrea. Certainly worth taking time out for – the rewards are boundless – more please. www.clingmusic.co.uk
