Love, BB: Solitaire

Love, BB’s “Solitaire” works against its own advice. The minor-key structure and Brooke Backman’s delivery hold the pose of a woman who has decided to stop gambling on love, but the card game metaphor refuses to stay clean: solitaire is…

Melanie Herrera: I Think I Lied

Melanie Herrera: I Think I Lied

Melanie Herrera’s “I Think I Lied” is romantic hesitation and reflex, at once. Mirrors the moment a goodbye loses conviction with a light step, but underneath that motion sits a voice already circling back toward what it claimed to leave…

Blakey: Touch.

Blakey: Touch.

Blakey’s “Touch” turns club momentum into repetition. It´s a house and speed garage track built around a chorus and a central melodic phrase that repeats over a different chord progression, changing the ground beneath the same vocal line so the…

Vansire, Eliza McLamb: Atmospheric River.

Vansire and Eliza McLamb’s “Atmospheric River” treats weather as a condition that settles over people and thought at once, a band of rain that does not pass but stays. Recorded during an atmospheric river, the track holds that continuous fall,…

Jenny Gillespie Mason: Rungs of Love.

Jenny Gillespie Mason: Rungs of Love.

Jenny Gillespie Mason’s “Rungs of Love” frames intimacy as ascent, a song where human attachment becomes a series of steps rather than a fixed state. The sound of a 1976 Martin guitar leads the cadence, its acoustic tone is warm,…
