Energy Whores Turn Club Beats Into Social Commentary on Pretty Sparkly Things

My first encounter with the genre-bending New York City-based duo Energy Whores came in 2023 with a tune called Freedom Fadeaway. Mentioning at the time that it was unlike anything I'd heard before, my interest in Carrie Schoenfeld and Attilo Valenti's work only continued to grow. 

Proud to now call myself a devoted fan of their boundary-pushing vision, I'd like to introduce you to Energy Whores' latest single Pretty Sparkly Things, a pulsating and chewy piece of EDM genius.

Infused with raw and biting lyrics that tear into luxury culture, celebrity worship, and billionaire excess, Pretty Sparkly Things shines with irony and satire, dismantling the illusion of glamour one searing line at a time. As the act points out, "it feels like a dance track you could spin at a club - until the words hit you in the gut."

A fearless and highly inventive offering, Pretty Sparkly Things proves once again that versatility isn’t just Energy Whores' strength - it’s essentially their signature. What won't be changed, however, is their commitment to crafting bold, political, and electrifying music.
