Salt Lake City, Utah
Pop-singer TKOH teams up with legendary dance-pop producer t.
Harts on the new club banger “Cigarette Burns”. Produced by
t. Harts, “Cigarette Burns” has notes of classic EDM influences
like Tiesto and KSHMR as well as influence from queer ballroom
music and just a little bit of Britney Spears. The summer may
be over, but the party keeps going on this edgy and fun dance-pop
bop!
t. Harts and TKOH explain that the concept of Cigarette Burns
is about “wanting to unlearn the outdated concepts from movies
and tv that we were all raised on” and find a non-fantasy, down-to-earth
love. As the song progresses, they describe that “seeing through
the fantasy doesn’t mean you’re not still addicted to it… It
just reminds us that maybe the fantasy is what we all want.”
Fittingly, a cigarette burn is a cue mark which signals
the end of a reel (or scene), which represents the change of
perspective on love throughout the song. Although the concept
of the track sounds a bit serious, this EDM pop single has been
declared “pure, dumb, dance with your friends fun!”
t. Harts is a Salt Lake City based producer, songwriter and
artist who fully immerses himself in the rhythms, stories, colors,
and textures of the music he creates. After starting out as
a solo artist and being in a duo called GUSTO, t.Harts was hired
to make multiple albums of sync music for warner chappell and
other libraries. His iconic style inspires his collaborators
and listeners to enter a creative space where everything is
allowed, and nothing is off-limits!
Now, meet TKOH: glittery, poison-soaked pop music by songwriter
and performer Joe McLean. From dance-rock infused bops to clear-eyed
paranoia anthems, TKOH’s debut EP, “Hollyweird” reimagines the
City of Angels through the lens of a modern queer James Dean
archetype. TKOH’s most recent EP, the “Fire Island Pining (Season
1) dives into fresh pop territory, marrying decades of queer
nostalgia with modern dance pop.
