Dance Lessons Share New Single ‘Just Chemistry’
Dance Lessons, a London-based, female-fronted and produced trio, have just shared their third single Just Chemistry, a delicate hymn to the unspoken.
I am really enjoying the smooth, warm atmosphere of the production and how they easily draw the listener's attention to their storytelling. Just Chemistry is a relatable song about the over-complication of relationships, misunderstandings and things left unsaid. This message is wrapped around their signature sound: minimal production, sleep vocals and intricate arrangements. I am really enjoying the groovy guitars, steady percussion, lush sax and smooth vocals that create quite a warm, sultry atmosphere that makes this song perfect for a laid-back day at home.
Speaking about the song, Ann said,
Just Chemistry is about the over-complication of our relationships. It’s about the things that are left unsaid in-between the awkward text messages and conversations, and how the absence of knowing can be misinterpreted as doubt. Last year was a difficult one. For a long time, I felt at the mercy of my emotions. I doubted where things were going. I lived in the future and found it hard to commit to the present. But these moments of not knowing can be equally thrilling and beautiful. And that’s what the song is about: finding beauty in the unspoken. In most cases, it’s chemistry that makes us fall in love. Things end, all is temporary. Let’s not go to war with one another over it.
Accompanying the release, the band have shared its official music video which was shot, directed and edited by Simon Frost and Ben Hanson. Check it out below!
Nat says on the video,
A friend told us about this weird and wonderful house in North London that feels a little like stepping into an acid trip. We obviously wanted to check it out. It’s completely surreal, all over the place (in a great way) and generally eclectic, which felt inherently us. We instantly wanted to do something there and asked the owner for permission to shoot a music video. We filmed during lockdown and were let loose embracing all the oddness of it. Ann also designed and created the outfit she wears in the video, something she does with most of her wardrobe. It was shot, directed and edited by our hugely talented friends Ben Hanson and Simon Frost from Borderland Studios.
