Timbre Tantrum

Dancehall queen Robyn has joined forces with Mad Decent-affiliated producers Savage Skulls & Douster for the club-ready track, “Bad Gal.”

Opening with a synth line cribbed from New Order’s “Blue Monday,” the Tim Erem-directed video follows our stars as they embark on car chases through the Pyrenees Mountains, face down masked wrestlers, go head-to-head in an intense tennis battle, and take turns at a tango with Robyn.

Check out the clip for “Bad Gal,” below.

Savage Skulls & Douster’s EP, Get Rich or High Trying, is available now from Mad Decent.

The concept is simple, but the emotions are raw.  In the video for Dancing on My Own, the first single off of Body Talk Pt. 1, Robyn wades through a sea of club goers only to find her ex-boyfriend making out with a new woman.  Instead of running away in tears, Robyn takes her anger out on the dance floor: shaking her hips and pumping her fists.  Robyn has said that the Body Talk series aims to be very personal, like a diary, and that idea shines through very clearly on this song – It’s honest, it’s real, and it still has a bangin’ dance club beat.

Summer is just around the corner, and we are already hard at work on our bikini bodies, day dreaming of soaking up some So Cal rays.  We are on pins and needles for our top five albums of the summer to drop!  Just put us out of our misery already, and pass the sunscreen.
