London – Sophie Ellis-Bextor released her album “Kitchen Disco” in mid-November.
Dua Lipa and Kylie Minogue also dedicated their albums to the disco genre. In an interview with “klatsch-tratsch.de” the singer revealed whether she considers disco to be the genre in the pandemic. The 41-year-old said: “I don’t know whether her albums were also created as a reaction to Corona. But what became apparent very early in the crisis: Gigs that were too serious weren’t really what people wanted to see in lockdown. Who does it turn to music to muddle in sadness when the world feels heavy anyway? You want to feel better. ‘Kitchen Disco’ is not a pure disco album because I mixed in other songs, but as a genre that began in the counterculture and conquered the world from the gay clubs in New York, disco music has always stood for a place of prudence and emotionality. “
She went on to explain what she meant. She went on to say, “Disco has this kind of catharsis. A disco song can have heartbreaking lyrics while the sound is totally euphoric. When you listen to a song like this, it’s like they have your heart in the middle of the dance floor And that’s a pretty cool place you can take, even though you’re actually stuck at home all the time. So disco, dance and positivity can carry us through the wave. And in a few years we will see the heaviest music is published because people process it all. I don’t even want to know what rhymes with lockdown. I won’t have any songs about lockdown. “
