Many out there might not be aware, but there’s an art to crafting relatable and catchy pop music. It takes years of work to get the right balance between melodies and lyricism; when mastered, the sky’s the limit. Brendan Baker knows it well, having spent the last three years working with 17-time Grammy Award Winner Benny Faccone, absorbing all the best practices for thriving in the modern music industry. And so he did, he thrived: ‘Mixed Signals’ is Baker’s latest effort, a euphoric and bright slice of pop goodness.
In it, the listener will be confronted by irresistible, groovy and empowering energy, guiding the single towards triumphal territories. How could it not be? ‘Mixed Signals’ blends retro and contemporary influences in true pop fashion, layering upbeat synthetisers over punchy and rather minimal drums. The results are staggering, showcasing the work of a sapient and talented creative.
Notably, Brendan Baker’s vocals take center stage, drawing the listeners into the summery tune with gravitas and charm. Once the chorus hits, the audience will melt, kidnapped by the catchiness and relatability so proudly championed by the record. Lyrically, ‘Mixed Signals’ “focuses on the dichotomy of being shy growing up in the bombastic city of L.A.”.
