Shygirl - "Heaven (feat. Tinashe)" + Nymph_o

[Island]

Ugh, this just makes me wanna writhe in dark club and make out with a boy all night while doing so.

 

[Bslg17]

This is a serve. Siren... whew.

 

[mindtrappa]

I think the last time I was this into an EP was... Azealia’s 1991? Obviously entirely different beasts, but the ability to pack so much diversity and excitement into 20 minutes... whew. Not everybody has that.

Here's another interview

[Inland Empire]

What an incredible EP. I absolutely love how many retro pop sounds she’s taken and mixed into the whole...cyberpunk android-fuel cocktail. Literally every song is a highlight, but the combo of Bawdy and Siren is just out of this world.

Now it’s time for me to binge on every other song she’s got on Spotify.

 

[slaybellz]

It’s here!

This EP slaps. I'm officially a little shygirlie.

 

[Mr Blonde]

This is phenomenal. Oh my god. Every song accelerates through a dozen different reference points and she doesn't take her foot off the gas at any point. What a trip.

Tasty is *chef's kiss*. It reminds me of Zomby's Float.

 

[mindtrappa]

I need a version of this with Alias

 

[Vasilios]

Me playing Megan, RAYE, Shygirl and the two Zhane albums today one after the other:

 

[Bslg17]

I'm still not over Siren. The good sis needs her breakthrough immediately.

 

[mindtrappa]

 

[mindtrappa]

She has the most pleasing speaking voice

 

[Vasilios]

She sounds and looks gorgeous!
(And tp think at some point I used to think Shygirl was a random white teenager cosplaying as a disco diva dd)

 

[mindtrappa]

New cover feature

 

[Up Down Suite]

Haven't dived into her music yet but I randomly looked through her videos and shoots after seeing her ads around London and my god they're so next level. I'm intrigued!

 

[K94]

Whew what an EP - Tasty may well be one of the best songs of the year.

 

[slaybellz]

I'm literally obsessed with this. SLIME and BAWDY are the ones.

“Siren” lyric video

 

[Harmonia]

What does BAWDY sample? That synthline in the hook is taken directly from a 2000s banger I can't put my finger on.

edit: nvm not a direct sample, this is what I was thinking of though ddd.

 

[sesita]

I'm so glad they seem to be pushing Siren, such a standout. I can't stop listening to it.

7.5

“She came to fuck” energy defies gender or context—it’s the concept of having a single goal and the gall to believe that you’ll either achieve it or be completely unfazed if you don’t. It contains the driving forces behind a good party: shamelessness and debauchery. In a year of no touching, these euphoric party moments feel far away, but Shygirl’s endearing hedonism brings that sweaty room a bit closer. ALIAS is a glittering light, a portal into the future and everything you might do.
