about

A track that builds on the exuberant energy of his earlier club compositions, ‘About 2 Be’ takes Hislop’s deft ability to make an unconventional rhythmic pattern feel accessible and adapts it for a pop setting. Integrating playful yelps in amongst the song’s percussive pattern, delicate melodic tones slide in and out of focus as OhEm’s vocal, in itself a stunning centrepiece as she ruminates on the anticipation and excitement of someone’s first night with someone new. This translates in the song’s production, with Hislop taking his avant-garde approach and applying it to the composition, integrating multiple movements and a hi-octane crescendo for an idiosyncratic take on the modern pop format.

With ‘About 2 Be’, Morgan Hislop has taken all his favourite elements of the postmodern pop music he’s loved over the years and transposed it to fit his own luminous vision. With OhEm, Hislop has worked with an ascendent songwriting talent and performer responsible for global hits such as ‘Stylish’ by platinum selling Korean group LOONA to tear up the rulebook on what is possible with the genre. With more new music on the horizon very soon, there are no limits to where Morgan Hislop will set his wildly vivid imagination next.
