BINNY DEEP END

Vietnamese-American artist BINNY is back with another slice of his highly refined electro-R&B. Following radar-worthy track ‘Retrograde’, his second release ‘Deep End’ is a tranquil and futuristic anthem for “fuck boys with feelings”, as BINNY puts it. As always, his voice is stunningly beautiful, taking notes from singers like Celine Dion to Ariana Grande to Kim Petras. The vulnerability of his confessional narrative elevates this track to something with a much deeper meaning, as BINNY reveals, “Personally, I'm afraid of expressing intimate emotions but this song talks about letting go of any fears and diving into all of those romantic feelings and enjoying it.” The floating production with a touch of the aquatic echoes the line, “and now I’m just swimming in your love,” to express BINNY’s brave surrender to his emotions. Mixed and mastered by Ellis Tucker (Sabrina Claudio, Kehlani), ‘Deep End’ is a divine new offering that marks BINNY out as one to watch. - Hannah Thacker
