How great it is to start the year with fascinating music! Straight out of Los Angeles, the duo Active Decay will dazzle you with their Hypnotic Pop style in their first single of 2025, “Next To Me.”

And it’s not just the synthesized melody that will put you in a trance, the same effect comes from watching their music video, which premiered today on YouTube via Lolipop Records.

Who Are the Geniuses Behind Active Decay?

Brooke Prince and Wyatt Blair are the dynamic duo who have made a name for themselves as cool and original artists since the early 2020s. They rose to popularity with their debut single, “I Really Love You,” whose vocals are just as sexy as those in “Next To Me.”

Moreover, they define their compositions as Hypnotic Pop, and for good reason. Their formula focuses on dreamy, experimental rhythms.

Both their synthesizers and even the aesthetics of their visuals carry a sophisticated vibe that doesn’t disappoint anyone!

Clearly, Active Decay knows how to make music sound vintage. With this in mind, they revive the best era of music and bring it back to the present, paying attention to even the smallest details.

The Enigmatic Allure of “Next To Me”

Overall, “Next To Me” creates a mysterious, enigmatic vibe. Plus, the sound textures seduce your ears while your feet sync up with the beats.

Surprisingly, the saxophone adds a touch of elegance and makes this track iconic. On the other hand, the romantic lyrics speak of an intense obsession with someone.

In short, a solid 10/10, I think this tune will definitely leave you wanting to hear more from them.

And if you’re thinking of making a list of emerging acts to watch in 2025, Active Decay should be one of the top choices.
