Listening Post: Batch 556

‘Effboy’ features a relentless acoustic guitar and heavy beats accented by rolling sub-bass underpin the track. It examines how ‘everyday’ misogyny provides a cover and permission for the kind of deep misogyny that leads men to hurt and assault and exploit and coerce women.

Effboy

This tribal and sexy love song is about the way your partner makes your heart beat out of your chest. The instruments are meant to represent the tribal nature of raw emotion for loved ones.

Come On Outside

"I Wanna" is an audacious dive into deep bass frequencies and fragmented rhythms, unfolding at 140 BPM. It strikes a perfect balance between energy and precision, featuring a menacing vocal sample, booming basslines, and impeccably sharp drumming. This track delivers a unique sonic journey, expertly crafted to captivate listeners and reverberate with force across the dancefloor.

Debut single "Nothing" releases 5/2/25 on all streaming platforms.

Nothing

Produced for BB95; @random_landscaping's theme: The Planets.

Inspired by the planet Venus.

The song title comes from the very last line in Greek lyric poet Sappho's "Hymn to Aphrodite," in which the lovelorn narrator invokes and asks the goddess of love for her help in the narrator's romantic stumblings.

Here are lines 25-28 from Julia Dubnoff's translation of the hymn:

"Come to me now once again and release me
from grueling anxiety.
All that my heart longs for,
fulfill. And be yourself my ally in love’s battle."
