Electronic Pop | House
Has some of that Passion Pit flavor with its driven beat and falsetto vocals. It’s an indie pop / electropop number that mixes both organic and synthetic textures to great effect. The track has these quite moments and these larger peaks which keeps everything interesting. Gabriel O’Leary (aka knapsack) is musician, singer, producer from Chicago.
Not only does this track sound killer but the lyrics are fun and acknowledges the strength we all get from our own ‘Lois’. The track plays on the theme of there is always a strong woman behind a strong man. In this case, Supermans’ Lois.
Chorus:
Superman never would’ve flown as high without his Lois
You’re with me when I’m way up in the sky or at my lowest
You got a love, stronger than steel, lifting me up, that’s why I feel like
Superman never would’ve flown as high without his Lois
Lois
The track has a fun energy and at times reminds me of an upbeat Vampire Weekend tune. For fans of Vampire Weekend @ScottHelman
Has a pinch of Goth, a hard dance beat, and slightly distorted vocals. The chorus has a very infectious melody. Grandson elevated the track to a more modern dance number with the beat and haunting elements. Grandson also made the chorus hit harder and added other elements like the guitar and his voice to really propel it.
KennyHoopla (aka Kenneth La’ron) is Wisconsin-based performer. Grandson (aka Jordan Benjamin) is a Canadian/American alternative artist.
Lyrics:
[verse 1 - KennyHoopla] Be my baby, be my girl Have my baby, have my girl Running crazy, run your suburbs Yeah,?yeah,?yeah There's a bounty?on my neck If they catch me,?they get a check Never give them no respect 'Cause all authority have told me [Chorus - KennyHoopla & grandson] You're just a lost cause She said, "I know how people like you end up" And if I die young I was born with a target on my head Yeah, yeah, yeah With a target on my head Yeah, yeah, yeah [verse 2 - grandson] You're the best worst thing that's happened to me Don't give it up, no way, pass it to me Not a flash in the pan You're a flash bang Actually in the backseat laughing at me 94 Porsche you were giving me trouble Not too slick and you're not too subtle Windows down getting high when we're going Through the tunnel Trip and I slip in the puddle On my own for a moment But you don't wanna hold it So you damn near froze it Feeling me composing Imma swipe down on a knee, derose it
