Disco will get us through this. brightlightx2
In the TikTok era, it's not every day that we get a perfect disco song. There's the Mark Ronson school of revivalism and Lady Gaga and Dua Lipa's interpolations, but nothing like Bright Light Bright Light AKA South Wales-born musician Rod Thomas' new Studio 54-worthy single premiering onThe disco-house hybrid is crafted from a syncopated clockwork beat and retro effects sounds like spandex and mustaches and hips in motion.
. This is a category of artists Thomas counts himself as a part of. Since relocating to NYC, over the last four years he's curated hosted and DJ'd an afternoon dance party called"Romy & Michele's Saturday Afternoon Tea Dance" at Manhattan's Club Cumming and Brooklyn's C'Mon Everybody. "The song is about how the safe spaces for the LGBTQ+ community have been fractured of late with a palpable uprising of anti-LGBTQ+ and xenophobic rhetoric, which is scarily even more real now as these public space are closed for the forseeable future due to the COVID19 pandemic," Thomas tells.
On another level,"This Was My House," calls back to queer history and LGBTQ icons through the voices of longtime Madonna backup singer duo Niki Harris and Donna De Lory, who back Thomas up on the track."For my generation, Madonna's 'Truth Or Dare' and its ensemble opened the door to LGBTQ+ culture, so having Niki & Donna on it means the world to me," he says.
