Body Language – “Addicted”
Brooklyn quartet Body Language make a slinky brand of groovy, often moody dance pop with infectious rhythms. They’re set to drop their latest full-length effort, Mythos, later this fall. An early taste of the album comes in “Addicted.” The four-piece showcases their uncanny ability to dance you through deceptively piercing, emotional evocations. Bubbling synth layers, and subtle intricate percussion drive the track as gauzy, penetrating harmonies float above. The song is perfect for feel-good night where flirting can be difficult to discern as love or lust. Here’s what singer/producer Matthew Young had to say about the jam: “Sometimes the line between love and need is blurred by desire, ‘Addicted’ tries to embody that line.” Listen.
