Tangerine Cassette are bursting onto the scene with their new EP, EXclusive Club, a six-track masterclass of brat-pop that gleefully turns post-breakup washed outness into sweaty anthem material. Spanning just shy of 15 minutes total, the EP is a self-realization and unbothered empowerment. It's the ideal soundtrack for anyone who reclaimed their narrative with a winking eyeliner and a mic drop.
Animating EXclusive Club, a eulogy to the unexpected bright sides of heartbreak, is the aftermath of a recent divorce. The title track leads the way, with Tangerine Cassette spitting barbed lyrics on top of a hotty, club-ready beat that's half Charli XCX, half Slayyyter, and unapologetically all them. Is it a central epiphany? At times, the one redeemable thing your ex had going for them was great taste, yourself included. But this insight transforms the "EXclusive club" notion from a bitter pill to a glistening badge of honor.
Though the EP flickers with brat-pop bravado, standout tracks like "FLIP IT BACK AGAIN" and "TOLD YOU SO" reveal Tangerine Cassette's versatility. "FLIP IT BACK AGAIN" laces together pulsating beats with a chorus as contagious as victory lapping itself, while "TOLD YOU SO" nestles into a sultrier, more contemplative mode without disarming its edge.
EXclusive Club is a manifesto for everyone who's been told they're too much and has retorted, "Yeah? Go find less." Whether walking confidently into your next chapter or searching for an anthem for your glow-up, Tangerine Cassette has served up the soundtrack you didn't know you were missing. Ready to join the Club? This is the best level you can reach, and it's priceless. Stream EXclusive Club now, and let the unapologetic vibes take over.
