Prom’s Smooth, Euphoric First Track ‘darlin’ [premiere]

Posted on the 13 May 2013 by Thewildhoneypie @thewildhoneypie

Brooklyn duo PROM definitely have a knack for crafting pop music, melding breathy synths, reverb soaked percussion, and co-ed vocals to create a tune that drips with electronic excitement and great vibes. The lead vocals sound like liquid, flowing and flooding the rest of the track and blending beautifully with the backing pads and glittery synths, while the pulsing percussion keeps everything laidback and smooth. The unique synth combinations and structure place this song on the line between synth pop and chill wave, capturing the essential elements of each and marrying them together to create a track that works like narcotics: euphorically relaxing and frighteningly addicting.
