Based in Austin, Texas, SAGE SUEDE is a true pioneer of electronic music fusions. In 2021, he unveiled Foolin Around, a visual album that featured the likes of Devin Alfather and showcased music videos that blended the mystique of sword twirling, fire swallowing and colourful smoke grenades. This ambitious project catapulted him into the global spotlight.
Now, SAGE SUEDE presents his latest full-length release with the 13-track album titled Dirty Blonde. The album is a vivid distillation to his innovation and creative prowess, wrapped up in his sensational command of sound design.
“High,” the opening track, propels listeners into the artist’s innovative electronic pop universe with its pounding beats and intricate instrumental layers. It’s a high-energy introduction to what’s to come. “Palm Trees and Scotch” sees Sage link up with Dazmin D’leon, delivering a spacey hyperpop experience, filled with buzzing synths and creatively processed vocals, resulting in a mind-bending dance-infused soundscape.
“The Best Revenge” features Honey-B-Sweet and Girlxhighlight, fusing dance pop with punchy beats and playful 8-bit style synth toes. The layers of vocals add depth to this kaleidoscopic sonic journey. One standout track, “Finna,” continues to reveal SAGE SUEDE’s chemistry with Dazmin D’leon. It’s a compelling blend of aggressive pulsing synths juxtaposed against softer, atmospheric synth textures, all complemented by SAGE SUEDE’s laid-back vocal leads.
The album concludes with Jyme’s remix of “Corn Chip Thot,” offering a fresh perspective on a track featured earlier in the album. It’s a deconstructed dance-oriented reimagining that perfectly captures the album’s diverse sonic landscape.
On Dirty Blonde, Sage takes us on an intergalactic journey through time and space. With each track, he invites us to ponder themes of fashion, romance and gender, creating an album that’s as thought-provoking as it is electrifying.
