If you’re craving something bright, catchy, and a little bit addictive, you’re in the right place. New Wave artists Camp Crush are stepping in with a vibrant sound that feels designed for instant good moods.
Of course, I’m talking about their new single, “Gravity,” which is the kind of tune that turns a normal day into a full-on grin-fest, and no joke, you’ll get why the moment it hits.
Moreover, the music video stars Jen Deale, the lead singer of this Portland duo of New Wave artists. She’s rocking a hot pink wig and oversized heart-shaped sunglasses!
Camp Crush’s “Gravity” Is a Confession in Song Form
“Gravity” is basically your permission slip to be honest with your crush, no overthinking, no hiding, just confess and let the moment do its thing.
This fresh song leans hard into an 80s-inspired happy melody with super full synths that make you feel a total rush of joy, like your brain just decided to stop stressing.
Most importantly, it’s made for anyone who’s had that overwhelming kind of crush, one that’s so intense it pulls you in even when you tell yourself you should act normal.
And because it’s all playful and bold, it’s impossible not to dance while you’re processing every awkward, embarrassing moment you’ve probably had in front of them.
What Is New Wave Music?
New Wave music is a style that grew out of Punk and Pop, with a bigger focus on synths, catchy hooks, and polished sound.
It’s known for its upbeat, energetic feel, often with shimmering electronics and a cool, artsy edge. You’ll usually hear it in songs that feel fun and driving, like you can’t help but move.
Other names people use for this genre these days are Electro-Pop or Synthpop. I’m saying this because a global explosion of younger listeners is just now getting into this rhythm.
Believe it, make no mistake, it’s been a real culture for over a decade!
Say Goodbye to Sadness and Hello to Fun with “Gravity”
In essence, this track is your ticket to letting go of the awkwardness that comes with falling in love and just having a blast.
Oh, and fun fact, the visuals were directed by Chris Spicer, the synth wizard of the group and Jen’s husband. Talk about a power couple!
No doubt, “Gravity” ditches the moody vibes, the seriousness, and all the heartbreak feels of their previous compositions, going full throttle into something electrifying. It’s easily one of their best jams, right up there with their 2022 banger, “Shadows.”
