“Rebound”, the new single from Birmingham based duo Bad Money is the follow up to their brilliant single “Ashes” which I reviewed for Fresh On The Net in July this year. https://freshonthenet.co.uk/2020/07/interview-bad-money/ I’ve been keen to keep an eye on this band as they’ve got a really lovely sound that I’ve connected with and even had the honour of remixing too. The new single builds on their accessible pop sound, the vocals give you a catchy melody, over 80s synths and electronic drums (Love those toms by the way). In the bio for the song I’m told that it’s about coming out of a long term relationship, something people can relate to, and they were going for a summery dance vibe, congratulations guys you tick all the boxes on this, if this was performed live you could tell where the backing band could put lots of stop/start breaks, it would sound amazing with a horn section to augment the synth stabs in my opinion. Nice guitar solo to play it out and a chorus that won’t quit. All in all a worthy follow up to “Ashes” thus keeping up the momentum. One for my playlist.
