New Music of the Day, October 18:


dePresno, "Mr. Big"
Norway's dePresno suffers from Rick Astley syndrome; his voice doesn't seem to match up with his body. Seriously, just listen to this song with your eyes closed, and try to imagine the deep-voiced douchebro crooning lines like "They call me Mr. Big" and "You could win an Oscar, girl, walking into the club like that." (I think my mental picture of this guy is a cross between the two dudes in The Chainsmokers). Then watch the video and see the actual pudgy, baby-faced 20-year-old Norwegian awkwardly attempting to dance, and suddenly the song becomes incredibly endearing. Catchy AF too.
