Rae Morris has made it a hat-trick of bangers in 2017 with "Atletico", a sizzling robo-pop number with clanking percussion and a skyscraper of a chorus.
The track comes after huge tune "Do It" and impressive comeback "Reborn", both of which arrived earlier this year, and acts as another preview of upcoming second album Someone Out There. The LP follows 2015 debut Unguarded.
Production on the album comes from Fryars, Ariel Rechtshaid (HAIM, Adele), My Riot (London Grammar, Bloc Party), Fred Gibson (RAYE, Stefflon Don), Buddy Ross (Frank Ocean), and Starsmith (Kwabs, Ellie Goulding). Dan Grech (Wolf Alice, Regina Spektor) is on mixing duties.
Tracklist:
- Push Me To My Limit
- Reborn
- Atletico
- Do It
- Wait For The Rain
- Lower The Tone
- Physical Form
- Dip My Toe
- Someone Out There
- Rose Garden
- Dancing With Character
Someone Out There will be released 2 February 2018 via Atlantic.
