Album Review: Robert DeLong Is Giving Apocalyptic Pop In See You In The Future
Let’s Be Honest! Between the global dying of democracy and the rising of climate change, it is safe to say that most of us just want to huddle into a fetal position and cry. Most of us feel a tidal wave of negative changes hitting a world that was already in dire need of more positive ones. In Robert DeLong’s See You In The Future, he is taking the Mad Max Fury Road to pop and giving us sultry optimism.
Robert DeLong – Revolutionary
With each synth zipping by you like a star-trooper laser, you want to include a “duck and dive” in your club choreography as you hear tracks like, “Revolutionary” and “Beginning of The End.” DeLong has created a sound that feels sensually apocalyptic, and every base and snare feel like a punch and kick to corruption and a kiss and caress to love. You feel romance in-between the ends of time, and can envision lovers dancing as edifices and dreams sand over. Yes, this is a pretty dramatic vision, but this is also a melodramatic EP, which is why you love it.
Robert DeLong – Favorite Color Is Blue ft. K.Flay
From ”Favorite Color Is Blue (Ft. K.Flay)” to “First Person on Earth,” DeLong’s voice bounces over lyrics as if he is an arrow pointing over her verses. He is so clear in his verbosity even when he turns up the rapidity. He spews and spits lyrics as if dunes are forming through them, and you cannot help but be enraptured. It is like Years & Years decided to create a dystopia- utopia, and, in it, you are required to move your body to survive.
