Thomas Inskeep: I thought trop-house ended a couple years ago? Or maybe I just hoped. This wouldn’t matter if “Tick Tock” offered other goods besides the vague Middle Eastern lilt to the chorus. If all pop songs sounded like this, though, I’d have one fewer thing to fight about.Īlfred Soto: Nostalgia for trop house in 2020 is like an eighties comp in 1992: I’m not sure this music’s been gone enough to get wistful about it. I tend to disagree - I wouldn’t spend as much time as I do writing or thinking about pop if I was annoyed by it all the time. He thinks that contemporary pop is a fundamentally annoying genre, a collection of pop-up-ad-style hooks and abrasive personalities barely held together by mediocre arrangements. That’s fine by me - we don’t have to agree on 100 percent of our musical taste, and it’d be boring if we did. Jacob Sujin Kuppermann: My beloved partner of five years hates pop music. Will Adams: If you’re seeking a trop-house song that successfully addresses the feeling of a crush taking over every waking and dreaming minute of your thoughts, try Zedd and Katy Perry’s overlooked “365.” But if you’re more in the mood for a song that makes you feel like music isn’t really that great after all, try this. Each element is completely detached from the rest of the song, but even on their own they don’t have much to offer.

Finally there is 24KGoldn, who delivers some loud and slightly annoying verses, plus backing vocals in the last chorus, which are barely audible. Then there is Mabel, who has a nice voice but still has a hard time transmitting anything - and the cold production behind her doesn’t help. The violins are completely out of place they have a folk vibe, which sounds comical, especially when the lyrics are supposed to be sensual. Juana Giaimo: There is something very empty about this song. The pleasure of “Tick Tock” is route-one Clean Bandit: not their most ambitious, but a bright and sprightly trifle nevertheless. 24kGoldn, meanwhile, demonstrates preternatural expertise in turning up, taking his money and leaving almost no impression at all. Scott Mildenhall: Clean Bandit have a lot to teach Mabel in terms of iterating a recognisable sound while maintaining personality. Wayne Weizhen Zhang: The titular “tick tock” hook feels gimmicky and stilted, like the parties involved sat around a table trying to brainstorm what would connect well with “the youth.” The rest is a mess: the electronic and orchestral aspects of Clean Bandit’s production have never sounded so disjointed, Mabel suffers from her usual lack of charisma, and 24KGoldn’s sounds like it was slapped on in the right before the song’s release.

The song is Clean Bandit’s first release since their 2018 album ‘What Is Love?’, while Mabel has shared two previous tracks this year including a collaboration with AJ Tracey in July. GraceĪ post shared by cleanbandit on at 4:45am PDT So much love to everyone who worked on it with us. It’s set in a massive cuckoo clock that we are all inside!! Directed by our boys Jack and Luke. We’re all quite excited right now!!!! The song is about obsession, which can sometimes feel like the relentless tick-tocking of time… So we decided to show some of our random obsessions in this video (anyone else love popcorn?!). The official music video is OUT NOW on our YouTube and we are personally counting down to it LIVE with (and her tiny doggy if she doesn’t get camera shy!).
