*New Music Tuesday* – Ellie Goulding

So because I have been hurting for ideas and content for this site, I decided to start a new feature called… (wait for it, wait for it…) NEW MUSIC TUESDAYS! (Cue pyrotechnics! BOOM!) Pretty damn OG huh? Anyhow, the idea of NEW MUSIC TUESDAYS (BOOM!) is to introduce you guys to new artists and tracks that I use in my sets or that I just really vibe out on. So with that, I give you England’s very own Ellie Goulding!

Subjective Effects:

Stimulation, arousal, and hyperactivity (e.g., many listeners get an “uncontrollable urge to dance”)

“So we burst into colors, colors and carousels,

Fall head first like paper planes in playground games

Next thing we’re touching

You look at me it’s like you hit me with lightning…”

I have been rocking this track in my iPod for weeks now and for some reason I can’t get enough of it. The vocals are very haunting, and the lyrics are on the softer side (Very Kaskade-esque if you will.), but at 1:01 the back beat and lead synth comes in and makes you want to bob your head. Definitely a hot track!

This Ellie song perfectly describes the way I’ve been feeling for the last few weeks – Starry Eyed. Enjoy!
