You can accuse me of gloating, but I can’t help but feel a tad smug for being one of the few fortunate ones to have heard this next stupendous track early when ascending production star Whethan (fka Wheathin) dropped it at SXSW last month. I quickly whipped out my phone and took some requisite IG footage as I bounced shoulder to shoulder with the crowd to perky larking Love Gang, all the while glowing from the privileged knowledge that Whethan had collaborated with Charli XCX. Love Gang is the perfect juncture where Charli XCX’s booming pop and sassy spunk come head to head or cheek to cheek with Whethan’s whirring synths and woozy bass. “We’re all about that love love love,” sings ever charismatic Ms. Aitchison. Words couldn’t ring more the truer as we all ‘gang’ up for a love fest over this wonky fusion of pop and future bass. We revel in the spice and relish in the zest that is Whethan’s anthem, out now via all digital outlets, here.
