VIDEO FRIDAY: HOST - Taste of Your Love

The music by Irish singer/producer HOST is delightfully off-center, like if she took 80s-inspired, big chorus pop music and nudged it carefully over the edge. “Taste of Your Love” avoids the slick ways of current pop production and builds on classic, lush but slightly discomforting synth lines.

SONG PICK: Spellling - Under The Sun (Video)

“Under The Sun”, the new song by Chrystia Cabral who goes by Spellling is quite something to wrap your mind around. It starts with bubbling Kraftwerk-y synths, then shape-shifts multiple times, but is always held together by Chrystia’s beguiling vocals. After “Haunted Waters” she chose a much more upbeat

SONG PICK: Betta Lemme - Give It (Video)

“Give It” is a futuristic pop song and a sharp left turn from Betta Lemme‘s previous music. “Bambola” was a big hit around the world and you probably know it well, but apparently the singer/songwriter from Montreal did not feel like standing still and kicks off her 2019
