WHEN THE CHIPS ARE DOWN…
WITH SUMMER ON THE HORIZON, JAMES BARR HAS THE ALL THE BEST TUNES — IF NOT THE BODY — FOR THAT BEACH PARTY
MUSIC
Dua Lipa and Miguel
WE’RE READY FOR THE BEACH with the hottest beats. And no I don’t care that I forgot to stop eating chips. Summer’s here and Katy Perry’s just baked up a new collaboration with US hip hop group Migos. Bon Appétit hits a seductive “fresh out the oven” pop-house production that is definitely 100 per cent not about her vagina. Side eye. Katy’s spread like a buffet, I hope there’s chips, but no dips.
If you fancy immersing yourself in a bitter rage of messy electronic calculator-esque noise mashed with break-up vocals and heavy Nineties synth, then have I found the tune for you? Danish producer SIBA’sI.D.C.A.Y. (I Don’t Care About You) is about as “cool” as sending your ex a 2am picture of chicken nuggets saying “found a new bae” and I’m obsessed. SIBA has his sights set on pop domination and after a studio session with Charli XCX, bae told Zayn Lowe she was “blown away”.
