SOPHIE’s legacy continues with the release of two new singles, “Berlin Nightmare” and “One More Time,” which are part of her upcoming posthumous LP, slated to be her second and final album. These tracks were nearly completed before the artist’s tragic passing in 2021, after years of collaborative effort with longtime collaborator Benny Long.
“Berlin Nightmare,” featuring musician Evita Manji, dives into gritty beats that gradually build before culminating in satisfying drops. The track, characterized by minimal vocals, embodies the essence of a techno club anthem, mastering every facet of the genre.
In contrast, “One More Time,” featuring Popstar, starts quietly with subtle beats that gradually intensify, reaching a crescendo around the two-minute mark. The song then accelerates into a fast-paced rhythm, punctuated by repetitive chants of “one more time,” creating a dynamic and energetic atmosphere.
These releases follow the debut of the lead single, “Reason Why,” featuring Kim Petras and BC Kingdom, a lively pop-oriented track showcasing SOPHIE and Petras’ vocals. With alternating verses and Petras delivering a catchy hook in her signature style, the song explores introspective themes with infectious energy.
Fans can immerse themselves in SOPHIE’s latest offerings by listening to “Berlin Nightmare” and “One More Time” ahead of the album’s release on September 27. SOPHIE’s impactful influence on music continues to resonate through these tracks, demonstrating her innovative approach and enduring artistic vision.
For those eager to experience SOPHIE’s evolving musical journey, these singles serve as a testament to her creative prowess and lasting impact on the electronic music landscape.
