If you are a fan of Omar Apollo or Dominic Fike, stream this single below and vibe out. His transitions are smooth, his lyrics are honest, and the breakdowns are captivating. There isn’t one dull moment and that’s what makes me a huge fan.

Lemon Tart by Dilip is one of those songs which borrow elements from various genres. Whereas the verses feel slow and remind me of RnB, the chorus has a nice rock tone on the guitar. I love how the vocals were consistent but at the same time malleable enough to fit both these styles.

We always love a good story behind a song and with Lemon Tart, we were impressed at the ability of dilip to expand on a simple subject matter. Lemon Tart is a thoroughly enjoyable lo-fi track with a super catchy chorus.

Born out of love and loss, Lemon Tart is the latest single by Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter, Dilip. Fresh from the heart to melody, the indie-pop track is intimate, vulnerable, and incredibly endearing.

“Lemon Tart” is dreamy and comforting, with soothing guitar and dilip’s gentle vocals. Fans of Omar Apollo, Dominic Fike, Cautious Clay, and Peach Pit will enjoy his sound.

Grab your dancing shoes and get ready to groove because this one is a vibe. The feel good bedroom pop production style pairs really nicely with his honest delivery. This one is perfect background music for your summer days, so go show dilip some love and stream his new song “Pretend” now!

How did you get started in music?

I was 5 years old when my parents enrolled me in Indian classical singing lessons. I’m so grateful because it was the start of falling in love with music as a kid — I also listened to a ton of 90s and 00s R&B, played in an alt-rock band with my friends, and made Soundcloud beats in Fruity Loops.
