What a nice surprise! Well, a surprise to me at least.
As I was casually scrolling through Twitter, I stumbled across a new track from one of my favorite duos – Majid Jordan. I saw them in concert last fall for the first time, and they were so good live. Definitely recommend seeing them.
Okay, so “Phases” starts out really slow on the piano. Right as those opening vocals hit though… YASSS.
“I keep going through different phases, stay going through different phases”
Then slowly but surely, you start to hear the song pick up. At about one minute in, the tempo quickens but in a very subtle way.
Then when the real deal beat picks up…
“omg. this is a new sound for majid! it sounds a little more techno but I AM HERE FOR IT. I LOVE THIS.”
The quote above was my actual real-time reaction to listening to that part of the song for the first time, so I decided to leave it. Clearly, I’m v excited.
But yes, listen to the song here on Apple Music!
PS – I think Majid Jordan makes the best late night driving music. And this song in particular is perfect for those late night summertime drives.
Anyway, I’m really digging “Phases,” and I’m hoping that the release of this song means a new project is on the way! Or at least one sometime this year 🙂
Hope yinz had an epic Thursday!
