Little Boots released the title track of her new EP, called “Business Pleasure”. Get lost in a swath of electrosynth-pop and harmonized refrains.

Check it out! Little Boots is back with her newest effort, called “Business Pleasure” which is out across the world, available on iTunes as well as on a limited edition vinyl. No longer restricted to a single label, she has been able to make her own creative decisions, and some of the lyrics in this new track really reflect the sentiment of a newfound freedom after having been locked into contractual obligations. “It wasn’t going anywhere, now the wind is in her hair, she knew she had to get ahead, she was right when she said I’m not your girl in the machine.”

The song’s construction is synonymous with much of her other music, despite its newly empowered lyrical content. The title track has been produced by Com Truise, the 80s style DJ who has done successful remixes of many artists’ tunes, from Sky Ferreira to Maroon 5 to Daft Punk. His signature style is branded into the flesh of this new catchy beat, with its swells and dreamy reverb laden harmonies that float in the background. At around 2:26, the breakdown kicks in and Com Truise launches back into the beat with a subtly placed drum-pad fill that sounds like it was lifted straight from the soundtrack to Top Gun. The intro also sports these roomy yet cushioned drum-pad tom sounds; they set a tempo that is later subdivided into catchy triplet feels that will hit the dance floors hard. One moment that really stands out is the very subversive call and response between the vocals and the synth that happens in the swell around 1:38.

Being as she is “tired of child’s play”, and looking to establish her independence, Little Boots is blazing a new track for herself with this catchy new EP, whose other tracks, “Taste It”, “Heroine”, and “Pretty Tough” all bear a similar insistence in their names to something that is new for her, as she strives to make what she has her own. It is also refreshing to hear a theme of rebellion to the music industry’s mogul monopoly in a pop-song, as that theme of rebelling from the hand that feeds you is mostly a tenet of the less mainstream.
