  • I like that the most notable things about Dua is that she’s a gorgeous pop star who makes great music. And then when you peel back the layers a bit, all you really see is how intelligent, worldly and

Has to be the catchiest hook released this decade so far :jonny5:

its literally Pop EXCELLENCE

THHHHIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSS

 

 

 

Also Physical - Love Again - Houdini = POP EXCELLENCE 

Btw a friend of mine is a radio producer

 

 

 

I told him about Houdini and the radio station contacted the label and the label told them to play the song on the radio !!!!!!!!

The best way to describe listening to Houdini is this gif:

As a casual listener I know this is going to sound dramatic af but as a Dua fan the leaks are really beyond a joke at this point :biblio: 

Spoiler

Won’t be listening but I hope it is actually just LQ and people aren’t just saying that

The full song leaked in HQ

 

But come on, basically a day before official release in this age is quite a success and it wont make any difference for her

I honestly can say it really doesnt matter and kind of plays into the release tbh. This will only reach a very select few people anyway and due to its quality spark positive reception.

Also, Houdini is a song thats gonna be on loop for quite some time anyway, its that good!

Speaking of:

What are the rules when it comes to Spotify again?

What do u have to be aware of so that every stream counts?

I know u shouldnt stream the song in succession

This is risky for the US. They could reject it from the get go.

 

But same applied with DSN. They could have just said "nah thanks" coz it sounded alien af for the climate when it dropped. 

 

Let's hope for the best though.

Is this coming out UK time like Easy On Me or midnight every country?

US will like anything which is shoved down their throat, so if they pay enough for radio spins and promo, it will be successful

 

DSN was not that risky as everyone's think, this type of funk/pop with disco elements was popular already since Uptown Funk was released in 2014 and was slowly progressing to pop music

I really feel like this is gonna have an „unusual“ performance for a dua single. 
 

its gonna take of from the get go & just gonna get bigger.

Something like you have to stream the song at least 30 seconds with volume on

But isnt there also a rule that when u listen to a song like 10 times in a row, it only counts as 1 or 2 listens?

Don't loop the song - create/find a playlist with the song and mix it with 2-3 other songs; also it's better to switch playlists sometimes, because if you constantly stream one playlist on your account, the streams will get filtered

Don't mute the song

Listen at least 30 seconds

This is exactly something which would fit into final chorus. Imagine this guitar with some distortion effect on it, plus the synth from the bridge and some strings and drum riser at the end and BOOM there it goes.

 

Why are producers afraid to make dramatic final chorus these days?

Papa Roach is literally the last thing i expect someone to make a comparison to :deadbanana4: I love it!

lmfaoooo I know! i’m just so interested in placing a cadence in my mind and matching it to other songs i’ve heard before. as a songwriter it’s something that can consume a whole day sometimes :rip: but I still feel like I haven’t fully cracked what Houdini reminds me of tbh 

I wonder if they thought about making a music video with her portraying a **** girl using dating apps. She has sex with the guys and then blocks them on the app... disappearing like Houdini. It could be a New Rules 2.0
