Laidback Luke and Nostalgix's "1000 BPM" Is a Lipstick-Smudged Throwback to Dim Mak's Heyday

Date:

Steve Aoki’ constructed Dim Mak‘s repute on sonic anarchy, and Laidback Luke and Nostalgix simply reminded us why.

The title of their new single, “1000 BPM,” is hyperbole, however its vitality is not. Reckless, rebellious and constructed for the type of night time that ends in daylight and candy remorse, the observe is a lipstick-smudged throwback to the label’s heyday, when its events left no one with out a bruise or a narrative.

“‘1000 BPM’ is all about being in your party girl era—living in the moment, letting loose and prioritizing fun above everything else,” Nostalgix mentioned in an announcement. “It’s about dancing with your friends, not caring what anyone thinks and just enjoying life.

An undeniable highlight of “1000 BPM” is its claustrophobic tempo switch, where Luke and Gix zip you inside a synth-stitched leather corset of tension. But just when the pressure becomes unbearable, they break the valve and unleash a ferocious electro house drop.

Meanwhile, Nostalgix delivers the hook with the conviction of a rapper who’s tired of apologies: “Don’t care what you need, I’m not considered one of them / I simply need to celebration, 1000 BPM.” Bratty and unbothered, she purrs with the kind of glamorous detachment that only comes from the bloghouse era.
