We are extremely excited to share this blend with you. Shifting a song from major to minor key always brings a dark but beautiful new edge to familiar tracks.
Taylor Swift is an incredible storyteller. She concisely weaves her angst and joy into lyrics that seem to allow her to overcome great personal difficulties while making the experience accessible to all. Perhaps this is why she is so loved by her fans and pop culture enthusiasts like us. Meanwhile, we call upon The Weeknd to set the stage for Taylor’s lyrics with Blinding Lights. The rich and evolving tones truly show that Abel Makkonen Tesfaye has become a master of synthesis and energy.
Together the tracks complete a world in which Taylor, surrounded by besties and furries, and The Weeknd, who stands alone in a city cold and empty, both seem to be pleased, over-joyed even, with their new found freedom.
