For better or worse, through thick or thin, ‘ride or die’ is an ode to the people who stand by your side. Featuring dreamy guitars, lush synths, and dramatic vocal harmonies contrasted over driving bass line and drums, the track evokes the sometimes understated (and sometimes dramatic) relationships that shape our lives.
Though cheekily self-described as “moderately danceable” Mystery Friends don’t want you to sit still. Falling somewhere between the xx and Dua Lipa, the DC-based band makes fresh synth-pop tracks you didn’t know you were missing.
