Not your usual record, ‘Motion’ is incredibly expansive and vibrant, wrapped in a plethora of noisy textures, spacious synth tones and evocative vocals. Penned by New Jersey-based outfit Lips of Strangers, the track develops as an intoxicating blend between pop, synthwave and indie, resulting in an otherworldly, quirky eclectic gem that’s bound to connect with a wide audience.
The project is headed by singer, multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Spencer Miles, using his past experience in the industry to carve a new, unique path for Lips of Strangers. From Space Fight to Ra Ra Riot, the talented creative has a wealth of knowledge at his disposal. ‘Motion’ is the perfect evidence of that. The piece blends relatable lyricism and an avant-garde sonic character.
So, what do we think of Lips of Strangers here at Mesmerized? Well, while the record is likely not going to appeal to everyone, there’s probably a big slice of late twenty-something and thirty-something that will enjoy it, especially if they are proficient in vaporwave/retrowave-related catalogues.
