“Black Ice” is where the magic happens with Subtronics, Rezz, and Phantogram hitting it out of the park. This track is a mood with its deep otherworldly vibe and Phantogram’s soul-touching vocals. Whether you’re into funky dance-worthy basslines or lyrics that tug at your heartstrings, this song has it all. Each beat, drop, and verse showcase what happens when this powerhouses trio comes together.
In this haunting re-release of “Black Ice,” Subtronics and Rezz craft a chilling aura that is dramatically transformed by the deep, evocative vocals of Phantogram. Setting a tone of desperation and darkness, the track begins with a cry out “begging on my knees on black ice, every time you leave.” Phantogram’s Sarah Barthel delivers these lines with an intensity that pierces through, painting a picture of emotional turmoil and heartache.
As the song builds towards its first drop, the atmosphere thickens with a blend of echoing synths and Rezz and Subtronics’ signature sounds, embodying the chaotic collapse described in the lyrics. “Smoke high on the graveyard, set fire to your cold heart” repeats like a haunting mantra, enhancing the song’s gothic aesthetic and its theme of fiery retribution against a backdrop of emotional coldness. This poetic imagery, combined with Phantogram’s ability to convey deep-seated pain and defiance, marks “Black Ice” not just as a track to dance to but as a journey through the darker sides of human experience. Don’t sleep on this; dive into “Black Ice” and let it transform your playlist. Available on all platforms now!
