New offering ‘Death & Romance’ comes from Magdelena Bay, an LA duo consisting of singer Mica Tenenbaum and producer Matthew Lewin. The track builds slowly from the lively piano melody we hear at the start, into a colourful mesh of influences, ranging from bubblegum pop to disco, wrapped up in psychedelic textures and topped by Tenenbaum’s phenomenal voice. She says: “Imagine rain pouring, streetlights glowing. You sit at home and wait for your alien boyfriend to pick you up in his UFO… but this time, he’s not coming.” Be sure to check out the surreal video directed by Amanda Kramer. You can catch the pair live in the UK and Europe this November. -Dan Peeke
