Francis Aud Releases His New Funk-Pop Single "Take Me Home"
NYC native, Francis Aud has released his new funk-pop single, "Take Me Home." Aud delivers a unique fusion of groovy funk and electronic elements combined with melancholic tone and lyrics. "Take Me Home" is now available to stream and download on digital music platforms worldwide.
With an 80s influenced psychedelic-funk sound and pumping disco-era beat, Francis Aud's new single lets you wallow in your feelings and makes you want to get up and dance the sadness away at the same time. "Disguised in synths and a funky dance-pop bass line, 'Take Me Home' is a sad song that's aware of its melancholy towards love and the state-of-the-world," explains Francis Aud. "To prove to its friends that "everything is fine" and that they’re "thriving," the song puts on a lycra jumpsuit, a neon-green headband, and shows up to the local roller rink ready to boogie while popping bubble gum for 80's dance night."
"Take Me Home" is produced by Stavros Tsourhas (AJ Mitchell) and Zach Golden (Anthony Ramos, Jasmine Cephas Jones) and mixed and mastered by Douglas Schadt. "I wrote this song back in 2019 during a snowy February afternoon in Stavros' studio. At the time, I thought the song was a little "too moody," and I wasn't that confident in releasing it because I was so self-conscious," he admits. "To me, this song represents taking a chance to pursue "what I heard in my head," and the universe shows me that it's okay to take artistic chances."
