Sweet Euphoria or Dangerous Fixation?

Abi Bec aka GET BEC returns with “Cocoon“, a slice of neon-drenched tropical disco-pop that hides what could be an obsessive fixation in an easy summer hit. Rooted in the bounce of late 80s and 90s, the track opens with an immediate rhythmic energy before the vocals introduce a layer of R&B. On the surface, it’s an accessible pop confection made for the dancefloor; beneath that polished exterior, lies a darker current of unhinged infatuation that tightropes the boundary between devotion and mania.
That rhythmic DNA drives the entire production, reflecting Bec’s background behind the drum kit. The track has a sensual, swaggering series of hooks that once heard, are hard to forget. Bec’s vocals that deliver lyrics that play on the double-meaning of a cocoon leaves the listener charmed by the melody while quietly wondering if this romantic pursuit has spiralled a little too far out of control. “Cocoon” thrives on this deliberate duality; it’s breezy, feel-good pop escapism while secretly indulging in chaotic, dark humour. Will you consent to this comedic tale of romance that crosses the line to complete obsession?
Whether you are looking for something to be completely immersed in or simply need a new summer hit for your playlist, GET BEC’s “Cocoon” has you covered. From clever layering to brilliant production, Cocoon has all the elements of a pop anthem that could easily sit alongside the big names of the genre. Sabrina Carpenter, Dua Lipa, and Lady Gaga step aside: it’s GET BEC we’re spinning to close out our summer of music discoveries.
