"Turns out every soul song with a lot of blank space in it just needs to be filled to the brim with Jersey club stomps and squeaks."
"It's the intersection of industrial bounce and hyperkinetic bars. Call it Life Grips."
"You know this song, which is why the tension between when you're expecting it to drop and when it actually drops is so good."
"The sound of when the clouds finally part, and that first dapple of sunshine hits your face."
Music critic Jon Caramanica curates five energetic songs designed to combat the final stretch of winter in New York. The selection spans diverse genres and production styles: Sasha Keable's "Tell Me What You Want" (UNIIQU3 remix) combines soul with Jersey club elements, Mandy, Indiana's "Sicko" merges industrial bounce with rapid-fire bars, Dylan Brady's "Needle Guy" bridges hyperpop and electronic music, Taylor Swift's "Opalite" (Chris Lake remix) plays with listener expectations through its drop timing, and deathtoricky's "Fido" evokes the sensation of emerging from winter into spring sunshine. These selections collectively offer buoyant, uplifting music to navigate the season's final days.
