Tim: Remember these guys from a couple of months back? Well, here’s their new one.

Tom: Huh. All the arpeggiated noodling-about in the background is a bit Owl City-ish (and the “good time” helps with that too).
Tim: Hmm, you’re not wrong there. Turns out we’ve not moved on from piano dance music like I thought we had, but if it currently sounds like that I’m very happy for it to hang around a bit longer, because it’s just great. The pounding bassline through the chorus stands out as being particularly nice, as does the melody in general.
Tom: You’re right about that, although good grief, is that ever over-compressed. That pounding bassline makes everything else in the track go silent to a ridiculous extent — it’s almost as if everything else keeps dropping out. I don’t think I’ve ever heard that effect so strongly.
Tim: Then let’s have the “I don’t need nobody to have a good time” as a nice and somewhat solitary anthem for the time being. I could jump around to this in my room for a long time, and I’d be happy to. Because I DON’T NEED YOU. LEAVE ME ALONE, I’M HAVING FUN.
Tom: Well, how rude.
