Gryffin’s Seductive New Single “Piece of Me” Was Created During Isolation: Listen
Gryffin has teamed up with Swedish indie-pop singer LOVA for a new single called “Piece of Me.” Out now on Darkroom Records, the sultry tune was created in the midst of a period of isolation during the pandemic. “I remember being stuck in quarantine, and all I wanted to do was see my friends and go out and have fun,” Gryffin recalled in an Instagram post. “Instead of being able to do that, I channeled that pent up energy into this record.” Gryffin’s quarantine-induced yearning for a fun night out shines in this lively track. Bright synths and a summery electric guitar riff make up the seductive beat, while LOVA’s emotive vocals serve as icing on the cake. The sizzling song belongs at any festive occasion, from nightclubs and festivals to pool parties and ...
Ed Sheeran’s “Bad Habits”—His Most Dance-Driven Track Yet—Came About “By Accident”
In a new interview with Apple Music’s Zane Lowe, Ed Sheeran discussed the full story behind the making of his latest single “Bad Habits,” which saw the singer-songwriter channeling dance music influences in ways he hadn’t previously. Sheeran had been preparing to wrap up the content for his forthcoming album Minus when he was approached with an opportunity. He was writing a song with producer Fred again.. and his brother, who are in a duo called Rain Radio. The goal was simply to make the perfect dance music track that could be played by Rain Radio in a Las Vegas club. “It was just like, I’d never really written dance music properly,”Sheeran recalled. “I’ve never really like gone put my head to it and let’s make it...

Veteran songwriter and producer Róisín Murphy has announced her first album in over four years. Dubbed Róisín Machine, it’s slated for arrival on September 25th through Skint/BMG. Consisting of 10 songs, the new effort follows up on 2016’s Take Her Up To Monto and the 2015 Mercury Prize-nominated Hairless Toys.

Top 25 Albums of 2020 (So Far)
Welcome to our Mid-Year Report. All week long we’ll be sharing the music, movies, and television that have helped us survive a strange and confusing six months. We start today with our Top 25 Albums of 2020 (So Far). It’d be fatuous to pretend that the first six months of 2020 have been like any other. All of us are facing difficult realities: the pain of injustice, the loss of a loved one, or even just the despair of looking out the window and not knowing what tomorrow will bring or when it will come. For the purposes of this list, then, maybe it’s equally foolish to think music impacted us the same way it always does. Then again, perhaps that’s what makes music so integral to our lives: that no matter what the world or our individual lives look like, music has the magical knack of provid...
Lady Gaga’s Chromatica Dances Through the Pain and Trauma: Review
The Lowdown: It feels strange listening to dance music at a time when dance clubs themselves, nights out with friends, and, for many, friends in general are impossible to access in person. Like so many of the joys people have managed to find in quarantine, kitchen-floor dance parties and celebrations shared via Zoom and FaceTime — while necessary reliefs and real, genuine joys — can also sometimes feel tinged with a hint of delirium. But Chromatica feels like an appropriate answer to the vacancy created by this dissonance — as a lot of Lady Gaga’s work has done in the past, it offers up some honest-to-God bangers side by side with some honest-to-oneself reckonings with trauma, pain, addiction, and the very idea of what it means to be flawed and how this idea shifts depending on who’s defin...
Charli XCX’s How I’m Feeling Now Offers Honest Expression for Uncertain Times: Review
The Lowdown: Throughout her musical career, Charli XCX, born Charlotte Aitchison, has occupied both sides of pop stardom — the radio mainstream and the small, sweaty clubs where experimental pop flourishes. Coming onto the scene in 2012 with “I Love It”, Icona Pop’s chart topper, which was written by and featured Aitchison, was quite the breakout, reaching car-commercial levels of unavoidability. Not long after that, Aitchison’s feature on “Fancy”, which she co-wrote with Iggy Azalea, was named Billboard’s song of the summer, and her song “Boom Clap”, featured in teen-favorite The Fault in Our Stars, rivaled “Fancy” for that title. Despite Aitchison’s ability to craft radio hits, her affinity for experimental hyperpop is what makes her a cult-pop icon who continually pushes the genre forwa...
