Casting a fitting mood as the leaves change colors, “Sweet September” is a warming track from Evening Elevator. The duo of Tim Segreto and Dub Sonata show a stirring sound with this project, emphasizing orchestral components and ardent lyrics within a soothing array of instrumentation. “Sweet September” allures with prancing piano, lush acoustics, and backing strings — as lyrics beckon for a sense of remembrance as the seasons change. In particular, the “hope you have a sweet,” vocal lead-in alongside twinkling and string-laden charm produces a caressing, lush feel that succeeds. I’m definitely looking forward to what’s next from Evening Elevator.
