Since their debut, rookies HITGS have launched some really diabolical materials — songs I’ve disliked however have gone on to begrudgingly sing together with as a result of they’re so stupidly catchy. This doesn’t make the music good, but it surely leaves an impression. New single A-Ha! dispenses with most of the gimmicks of the group’s previous to embrace the muted dance sound favored by this yr’s lady teams.
I’ve written about so many songs like this over the previous few years that it’s grow to be tough to explain them in new methods. They nearly all the time find yourself rated within the “7’s” as a result of they’re neither good nor dangerous. They merely exist as inoffensive environment. It’s as in the event that they take the concept of a dance observe and clean out each doable edge till you’re left with music that feels oddly indifferent and compressed. When listening to a track like this, I really feel like I’m half-asleep, capable of discern the general form of the music however struggling to concentrate on the main points. It’s nearly intangible, and that high quality makes it laborious to connect any actual character to the observe or the group performing it.
