Pop auteur Ryan Power takes delight in stripping genres and wearing their ragged skins interchangeably. On his previous single, “The Prize,” he peddled a twee-meets-soft rock aesthetic that blurred the boundaries between bands like Electric Light Orchestra and Camera Obscura. On his latest track, the static-y minimalist jam “New Attitude,” Power finds comfort in the sterile, spaced out rhythms of early 90’s R&B and synth-led lo-fi pop iridescence. Taken from his forthcoming record Identity Picks, due out June 25th via NNA Tapes, “New Attitude” makes another solid case for Power being as much a sonic chameleon as he is able to completely reconstruct his influences into something wholly his own. And along with this single, Power has also shared a short run of tour dates in support of his album. Check out those dates below the stream.
