“Raincoat” emerges from its early disguise as a gentle synth and rolling percussion single with a sonic guitar that builds to prominence at the 48-second mark. The vocals willfully follow suit, transitioning from a calm descriptive approach to a more powerful, almost athematic approach. “Raincoat” does return to its gentle beginning (2:30), but exits with a different, yet equally energizing, sequence.
Hot Dreams explains “Raincoat:”
“The song’s lyrics also focus on trying to not to sweat the small stuff, focusing instead on the people who love us and allowing ourselves to be content and happy with that. It resonates with our time in lockdown, as we’re all forced to strip our busy lives down to the bare bones without any of the normal noise and clutter.”
Regarding its performance in a live setting, the band says, “'Raincoat' is a song that represents everything we love about playing live. It’s an expression of freedom and onstage it acts as a release from everyday worries."
Hot Dreams are based in London. The members are Kai Fennell (vocals, guitar), Aaron Clarke (bass), Alex Bloomfield (guitar, keys) and Cam Fyall (drums).
