Take a boy with synth skills and a girl with bewitching vocals into a bedroom of Beach House DJing their recreation, the outcome is a five-track EP entitled Doin' It Slow. Makers of Doin' It Slow are a duo from Toronto, Bad Passion. Alt is the boy and Lesley is the girl. Both in different bands, Alt and Lesley teamed together to make "super-slow chillwave R&B".
The placement of those three words together is somewhat odd but they faithfully describe Bad Passion. Songs "Your Ride" and "Rockin' Your Beats" are lyrically influenced with popular R&B rhymes and "Liquid Fire" has a soulful flare from Lesley's haunting speech. Alt says,
"Liquid Fire" is the track about "lust in racquet sports". It's a song about a fiercely competitive badminton match, but the protagonist is attracted to her opponent which is confusing. So her taunts are vicious and she becomes even more ruthless a player. Hilariously, long after we wrote the song we found this website: http://bad-passion.
Listen to "Liquid Fire" below and get sedated by Bad Passion. The entire Doin' It Slow EP is available for free on their band page. Take a trip to BadPassion.com.
