Singles that sounded outdated upon release


Recommended Posts

BMS was almost a whole decade late to the Retro House sound and had it actually debuted while that era was around it still would have sounded dated.

Here are the songs that seemingly inspired this sound that is having a resurgence with Espresso.

Well, there are qualities in all 4 songs that i love. These are all amazing songs, i love this sound.:clap3:

The next artist i'm aware of that hopped on this trend is Dua Lipa. 

 

Dua Lipa has many single choices for this album still. :cm:

 

 

 

 

 

You know Whatcha Doin was written and recorded before Espresso right?

 

Also Espresso didnt bring back the sound, more like it extended the countless lists of songs of this style which came after comeback of heavy funk-bass songs such as "Say So" and then Future Nostalgia.

To think this is a Max Martin collaboration. This just proves that even the best pop producer/writer in the world can't make miracles happen with a boring artist.

This!!!

I actually like their songs, but it's one thing to sound inspired by the 90s and early 00s R&B, and another to sound directly from that era

Yes. I know there are many songs in this style. But Say So doesn't sound quite as close to or as quality as the ones i posted.

There's no way in hell this should've been a single in early 2014 and without a music video.

Jump would've fared better if it was buzz / promotional single shortly after it was recorded back in 2012.

Jump still hits and still sound fresh.

Boy's a Liar by Pink Panthress

 

This sounds like something that would smash in 2000-01, not 2022-23.

I pray for the day they find a producer who can really flesh out their sound. They're too talented to be singing off-brand DC/Brandy tracks. :dies:
