This is The Drop.
-Control Forever
Harry Styles – “Lights Up”
By far my favorite release of the week (and probably the month), coming from Harry Styles. This is the first single since his debut self-titled, rock inspired album that was released back in 2017. He is continuing his stride of creating ‘70s inspired music with his track, “Lights Out,” that has psychedelic features and wavy instrumentals. There hasn’t been an official release date for his upcoming album, but it is definitely in the near future—and I am beyond ecstatic for the return of Harry Styles.
Two Feet – “You?”
Two Feet’s latest track is bringing a sultry and electric attitude that is just so undeniably cool. Their new track, “You?,” takes on jazz influences to accompany the guitar strums with synths that take over on the chorus to create this absolute vibe of a song.
The Neighbourhood – “Yellow Box”
An unexpected release from The Neighbourhood is all thanks to their feature on the new PlayStation 4 game, Death Stranding. The song is haunting with its cryptic lyrics and dark tones, making it coincide perfectly with this fall season. The release of the entire Death Stranding soundtrack is set to release November 8th.
Jauz – “Get To Me”
House music is on the rise yet again, and most DJs are taking their turn to make it their own. Jauz has dabbled in the house genre before, and is back with his version on his new song, “Get To Me,” which is funky and a complete dance party from beginning to end. Give this one a listen, as it is a promised banger.
Cigarettes After Sex – “Falling In Love”
The track, “Falling In Love,” is the second single from Cigarettes After Sex upcoming album, Cry, that is set to release next week. This song is a lovely and serene story that taps on every happy emotion that deals with falling in love.
