New Music | Agnes & Dua Lipa dish up a Double Disco Deluxe.

Disco makes a triumphant return to the airwaves, reincarnated for today’s time as dark, edgy with a certain melancholic joy.

And no other pop sirens are better serving this sound than Agnes Carlsson and Dua Lipa in their respective brand new releases.

Agnes continues her glorious foray into the string-laden disco universe she’s mapped out with her previous releases. ‘Goodlife’ is a rousing anthem to - as the title would suggest - a life made fabulous. Check out the catchy Swedish ode to The Supremes below:

Over in the United Kingdom, suspense and soaring synths underscore the story of sexual tension in Dua Lipa’s new release. Taking off from the scandi-sparkly universe of Agnes, ‘Physical’ veers further afield into a darker, more edgier territory. The eighties influence is clear, and the production is undeniably top-notch in this slinky hit.

Two sides of the same coin, from heaven to hell, Agnes and Dua Lipa are pushing disco into an exciting new sonic space. 2020 is definitely the year disco went dark and I for one cannot wait to hear what these ladies turn out.
