Barbarella has mastered the craft of soulful synth-pop with her new single, ‘Horny’. Produced by Dave Randall of electronica powerhouse Faithless, the track is as to be expected: sultry, full-bodied, and addictive.
Backed up by a funky new-wave-inspired rhythm, Barbarella’s vocals are the star of the track. It is easy to see why her rich, velvety voice has been likened to Cyndi Lauper and Self Esteem. The lyrics surround the frustrations that come from reuniting with an ex-lover and explore why bad decisions can feel so good, ascending into a bridge that is dance floor perfection. Paired with a steamy video full of strobe lights and fruit-themed visual innuendos, ‘Horny’ is an anthem of female sexual empowerment.
Barbarella is a London-based, half-Italian musician who performs as a solo artist as well as with her band, Barbarella’s Bang Bang.
