Test Run

The Canadian pop/R&B songwriter breaks down the making of key tracks from her debut EP, ‘Fifth Goodbye,’ exclusively for SoundCloud listeners. The track “Like Dis” is about “going zero to 100 with somebody new,” she says, while “Sugar Cane” is a “sexy, sultry song about temptation.” Elsewhere on the project, “Hold Me Down” features a crossover blend of R&B, pop, and house music, while “Expensive,” a celebration of confidence and self-worth, is “one of the funnest songs I’ve ever recorded.” Hear more from the fast-rising artist, only on SoundCloud’s Voice Notes.

Nigerian artist Dera calls his distinct blend of Afropop and R&B “Afroswag” — and on his new project, that confidence comes through. In this exclusive commentary, Dera talks about some of his latest tracks, and how he’s inspired by hitmakers like Burna Boy and Post Malone. On “Any Other Day,” he makes a bold statement — “I only make hits,” as one line translates — “so the universe is expecting hits from me,” he tells SoundCloud. “Sade” is a celebration of love and “SAROJE” is “more than a song, it’s a mood,” he says. Listen now.  

Voice Notes: Dera on "SAROJE"

I’m stealing that bitch like a bandit
I murder the scene with a blammy
I mop em down like a janitor
Pouring on green in the fanty 
Mix it with red or it’s useless
You heard me, feel me, get me
Mix it with red or it’s useless
You heard me, hey, yeahh 

Hire the stick I’m employing it
I shoot your friends at the end now I spoiled it 
They don’t want the smoke they avoiding me
I’m tryna swat the bitch down they annoying me
I hang it up like an ornament 
I got the swag from Milan I imported it
Reef I feel like a finn, this an adventure let’s go for the win 
I’m stretching out the Jake’s, proving a point, this not for pretend
Scrape out that block with no brakes, I told that bitch put the money in my hand
AP I blind out the face, I knocked the diamonds straight out of his chin
I’m searching for niggas they hiding
They don’t want me know where to find em (up)
She lmk when she sliding (ah)
I’m pushing her water Poseidon (up)
Pull up and slay the assignment (up!)
Baddies they cheesing they smiling (uhh)
I pull up real greasy to slime ya (up)
Then sped up , rewind ya (uh)
You could play duck duck goose (uhh
But the trackhawk gon find ya (up)

I’m stealing that bitch like a bandit

Pouring on green in the fanty 
Mix it with red or it’s useless
You heard me, feel me, get me
Mix it with red or it’s useless
You heard me, hey, yeahh

French producer Noizinski specializes in a cinematic brand of dark, bass-heavy techno. On his new EP, ‘Outer Consequences,’ he explores “the tension between creation and restraint” on “Stasis,” he explains in SoundCloud-exclusive commentary. “Entwined” — likely the project’s “most punchy and hard-hitting” track, he says — is about breaking free from constraints and finding release from a negative cycle. Meanwhile, “Exile” showcases Noizinski’s melodicism: “It feels like a fresh air before the final storm,” he says. And closing track “Beyond” is “dark and mysterious, but there’s still a bit of hope in it.” Hear more from Noizinski, only on SoundCloud.
