MARIE DAVIDSON CONTRARIAN

Inimitable dance producer Marie Davidson makes a menacing return with 'Contrarian'. Opening to a punishing techno kick, Davidson's taunting vocals fittingly speak of disruption, laced sporadically between acid-flavoured synth lines. Shifting in mood and momentum throughout, the rave-inspired single executes a uniquely dark sense of euphoria. Suitable for debaucherous nights on barely-lit dance floors, there's something sinister yet satisfying about Davidson's work that makes it all the more pleasurable. Like a sonic dose of forbidden fruit, 'Contrarian' will lure you in and hold you captive in its electronic grip. Residents of Portugal and Spain can catch the tail end of her Europe tour, before she heads over to the USA next month. -Holly Mullineaux
