Hailing from Tulsa, Oklahoma, multi-instrumentalist dynamic duo Bathtub Swimming warm listeners with their captivating vocals and wide-ranging sound.

Bathtub Swimming returns with their brand-new single ‘Tonight’. They bring in a bright and rhythmic production combined with introspective and original lyrics to form an eclectic and unique experience inspired by their most admired genres.

‘Tonight’ is infused with dreamy and empowering vibes. The genre-blend of ambient-pop and lounge sounds uses electric piano, drums, synthetic bass, electric guitar, and vocals in the production.

The original plan for the song was to have a slow-moving pace, melancholic keys, and a bass that built anticipation before launching into an evocative romantic scene. The song’s lyrics describe someone waiting for a buddy or a date to arrive for an outing that has been mutually scheduled. The protagonist departs the scene in a self-realizing moment that she is in charge of her night and chooses to enjoy a good night on the town by herself after realising she was stood up. She takes the disappointment of being left behind and turns it into personal strength.

On the song, Bathtub Swimming says, “‘Tonight’ showcases solitary enjoyment and self-empowerment.”

Bathtub Swimming’s musical prowess is on full display in ‘Tonight’, which also highlights the multi-instrumentalist dynamic duo’s rising passion, devotion to artistic progress, and musical talents. Their most recent release, which complements their whole musical record to date, demonstrates their artistry.

Dmillyyy kicked off the month of love with the lead single, “Balance.” “Balance” was Dmillyyy’s first song of the year. The record served as a teaser for his new EP, Cupid Pack, which was released on Valentine’s Day. Cupid Pack is a five-track EP that dives into the intricacies of love. The EP is an eclectic body of work as it utilizes various genres of music, such as Alternative R&B, Melodic Rap, and Reggaeton.

Cupid Pack starts off with the song, “Thunderstruck.” The track is a record that features a wavy beat and Dmillyyy’s smooth flow. The sound is reminiscent of Jaden. The next track, “Balance,” is a fan favorite and for good reason. “Balance” has a bouncy beat that makes listeners want to groove. The record has a Drake feel to it. The catchy hook reels you in immediately. Dmillyyy cleverly sprinkles in some Spanish lyrics, which are a prelude to the third track on the EP. “Q.M. Interludio” follows “Balance.” The Latin Music interlude showcases the versatility that Dmillyyy possesses. The penultimate track, “WYGD,” is a downtempo, love song that is enchanting. The tune has a sample that blends well with the theme of the song. “WYGD” sets up the EP’s closer as “Madness” is another slow jam. “Madness” is the perfect finale. The sensual track embodies passion and love.

The EP’s introspective/extrospective take on love provides all listeners with songs that resonate with them. Although each song has its own flavor and unique sound, they still connect and carry a cohesive message. “Cupid Pack is an image painted to describe different emotions that may arise for particular love interests.” Dmillyyy continues: “Sometimes it isn’t that serious and just the feeling that you want to cherish. Sometimes the other’s existence makes you want to question everything and reflect back on your own life. Either way, both parties are living in the moment and letting that lead the way.” Cupid Pack is only the beginning as Dmillyyy has much in store for the year. While waiting for his next masterpiece, be sure to show love to the immaculate EP that is Cupid Pack.
