There’s a specific feeling when a liquid-leaning DnB track gets the vocal exactly right, and Out Of My Head sits right in that pocket. Lauren L’aimant’s top line is wistful without being weepy, and Subsonic gives it room to breathe before the drums come in and lift the whole thing off the floor. The contrast is the trick: the melody wants you to feel something, the rhythm wants you to move, and the track flatly refuses to choose between them. I keep coming back to the breakdown, where it strips down to almost nothing and then rebuilds with this satisfying inevitability that you can feel arriving a bar early. It’s emotional dance music that doesn’t embarrass itself, which is harder to pull off than the finished product makes it look. The kind of tune you put on a late drive and suddenly you’re thinking about someone you hadn’t planned to. Quietly excellent, a grower, and the sort of thing that sneaks onto a playlist and refuses to leave.
