It's New Music Friday again! This week we have 10 tracks for your review. Kicking things off with a stunning new one from Kylie Minogue!

 

Kylie Minogue - Padam Padam

 

Kylie Minogue's new song "Padam Padam" is the lead single from her upcoming sixteenth studio album "Tension" The song was produced by Lostboy and features a techno-pop backdrop with a thumping earworm refrain. The title of the song, "Padam Padam", is onomatopoeia for the sound of a beating heart.

 

The lyrics revolve around the singer getting up close and personal with a mystery man, with Minogue singing "Padam, padam, I hear it and I know / Padam, padam, I know you want to take me home."

 

In the music video, Minogue writhes and shivers as her sheer, red cape defies the laws of physics floating all around her as she and her dancers, all dressed in red, beat their hands on their hearts.

 

The Australian pop queen has returned to modern electro-pop with her latest song, marking a new era in her already impressive career.

BroknHearts Be Still (feat. Deee-Lite) is a new track released on May 13, 2023, by Tucker on the Beauty of the Beat label. 

The track features the vocals of Deee-Lite, an American house and dance-pop group that was active in the late 1980s and early 1990s, which of course got my attention!

 

The song has a catchy beat and a smooth melody that is sure to get you moving. The vocals of Deee-Lite add an extra layer of energy to the track, making it a perfect addition to any dance party or workout playlist.Tucker is an up-and-coming artist who has been making waves in the house music scene. His tracks are known for their infectious beats and catchy melodies, and BroknHearts Be Still (feat. Deee-Lite) is no exception.

 

How I wish Deee-Lite still made music today. For now, I am happy to hear a refreshed version of their unique style!

With its religious overtones and metaphors, the song offers a message of hope and inspiration that is sorely needed in today's world.
