“I wanna be your boyfriend,” yearning vocals admit amidst throbbing synths and guitar flourishes on new single “Boyfriend,” driving into a memorable chorus that admits not knowing how to convey such feelings.
Described as “synthy, cheesy and melody heavy,” the memorable production is a melodic charmer from Venice, California-based project Humdrum Book Club, which comprises songwriter Andrew Ross and producer John Helfrich. The verses resemble the playful synth within Blur’s “Girls & Boys,” fondly, while the central hook dazzles in its replay-inducing radiance and invigorating vocal rise.
