GULLIBLE

Just Like It Was Before is the new single by LA-born Blake Robin—better known as LUXXURY. Made in close collaboration with Jill Lamoureux of Scavenger Hunt and Tim Bernhardt of Satin Jackets. If that combination of ingredients excites you: you’re right, it should.

Just Like It Was Before has a certain endlessness to it. Glassy, yet warm; beautifully classic, but incredibly modern at the same time. Dance music for adults. Shiny, yet subdued; like a vintage Camaro. Quintessential electronic pop music, done right.

The song itself deeply explores the perils of hindsight in the digital age; “I’m so sick of staring at my phone”, which rings through the pre-chorus as the perfect summary of this emotion. Even though the lyrics convey a yearning to days gone past, there is a certain hopefulness to the song which whispers that it might just be alright. A sentiment not out-of-place in our current pandemic climate. 

The crystalline, squeaky-clean instrumental comes courtesy of a co-production with Tim Bernhardt, of Satin Jackets fame—providing the perfect bedding for Lamoureux’ sweet, watery voice. 

LUXXURY is a bona fide disco-wizard with the receipts to prove it—whether it’s supporting the likes of Giorgio Moroder and The Juan Maclean on tour or going viral on Tik Tok, Robin is like the Nu-Disco Swiss army knife of the dance world. 

With regular support from taste makers such as KCRW, SPIN, Kitsuné and Future Disco to name a few, LUXXURY’s Just Like It Was Before is an excellent example of his signature brand of melancholic disco, shooting some much-needed glitter into our world.

‘LUXXURY – Just Like It Was Before (Feat. Jill Lamoureux)’ (BA087) out October 29 on all digital formats via Boogie Angst.
