15 years ago, they taught us what it meant to be slizzard. Now, The Cataracs and DEV are back to prove lightning can strike twice.
The architects of your questionable college decisions have reunited for a new single, "Make Ya Body Whistle," out today via EMPIRE. Due to today’s glut of daily new music, the track might not change the game a-lá previous collabs like "Bass Down Low," but it's an undeniable banger for anyone who misses the days when Kesha was spelling her name with a dollar sign and BlackBerry BBM was the height of social connectivity.
"Make Ya Body Whistle" arrives like a time capsule from the early 2010s club scene, when phrases like "on fleek" dominated pop culture and Ed Hardy t-shirts were somehow cool. For fans who spent that time pounding energy drinks and dancing to "Like a G6," this reunion delivers a dopamine hit of musical nostalgia while proving The Cataracs and DEV still know how to craft an electro-pop anthem.
Those vintage, trunk-thumping 808s are back along with DEV's unapologetic vocals, which retain their characteristic blend of detached cool and sultry invitation. Meanwhile, David Singer-Vine of The Cataracs drops his own lyrical callback to "Like a G6," rapping, "Poppin' bottles in the ice like a hurricane / Now I'm feelin' so fly like an airplane."
