Petticoat: “Get Loose!”

By: Jack Anderson

At a junction of ’80s-style synth-work, millennium-era R&B, and modern electronic experimentation, L.A. producer David Halsey, better known to the world as Petticoat,  is inching closer and closer to a truly timeless sound. Which is impressive to say the least, considering he’s only in his mid-20s, but that youth has allowed Halsey to overlook some of the restraining factors of retro new wave formulas and instead extrapolate the genre’s finest nuances and appropriate them into poppy, dance floor-ready club bangers.

This morning Petticoat revealed the roadmap for his new EP, Tumbleweed, an announcement that coincided with the record’s jaw-dropping lead single and flamingo-friendly music video, “Get Loose!“, which both feature that all-too-classic Led Zeppelin “When The Levee Breaks” drum sample and are sure to help you unwind into the weekend.

Swimming With Bears: “Patient Disguise”

A lot of self-proclaimed go-getters take full responsibility for their actions and efficacy. The motivation and blueprints to make changes in their lives is always at hand. For others though?

Rojenka: “Dang Girlfriend”

Collin Mullins: “Sunny Side”

Everyone’s capable of “seeing the light”, whether it’s through newfound sobriety, bringing up the “bright side” post-crucifixion, or just waking up a little earlier in your daily routine. But of course, the lead up to those optimistic rays can take some serious time. Take for instance Collin Mullins and his inspiring personal journey. A staple […]
