Track Overview: izna – Mamma Mia

Up to now in izna’s discography, there hasn’t been a full single that I’ve cherished. As a substitute, there have been elements of izna singles I’ve cherished. The synthpop refrain of Signal. The mid-2010s, vaguely tropical beat of their self-titled debut. Producers Teddy, Kush and 24 have strong resumes however I want them to take each one in all their greatest bits and assemble them collectively to create a killer monitor that stays killer from begin to end.

I’d be curious to know when new single Mamma Mia was composed as a result of it appears like a post-ALLDAY PROJECT work to me. I might simply see the tune going to that group and it’s fairly an aggressive flip for izna’s sound. On the plus facet, the women ship the confrontational power surprisingly nicely, bringing a renewed sense of energy to the efficiency. On first hear, I used to be intrigued once I assumed the opening bars have been the tune’s verse. Nonetheless, it shortly grew to become obvious that this was really Mamma Mia‘s refrain and I don’t assume that works practically as nicely. The association is simply too empty.

In actual fact, this vacancy is an issue throughout. It makes the women’ efficiency really feel overly loud as a result of there’s nothing to push towards. It’s as in the event that they’re shouting into the void. Mamma Mia lastly picks up steam throughout its requisite YG-style dance breakdown, however this squawky instrumental break lands with a thud as a result of there’s no build-up to make the finale really feel earned. With a couple of extra revisions, there is perhaps a very good tune in right here. For now, this appears like a tough draft.
