Last month, Icona Pop took over Miami Music Week, which saw them play a series of DJ parties followed by an appearance at Ultra Music Festival, performing with Joel Corry. Riding high on the buzz, Icona Pop returns with ‘Faster’ via Ultra Records.
‘Faster’ is a high-octane powerhouse of a track that embraces contemporary club vibes with a distinctly Icona vocal and plenty of edge. The pair deliver another dance-pop moment that runs full speed at life and is set to be as much a favourite of underground dancefloors as leftfield pop aficionados.
In the 10 years since their multi-platinum mega-hit ‘I Love It’ (feat. Charli XCX), Icona Pop have continued to push the envelope with their unique and irresistible brand of cutting-edge pop. As at home with pop royalty (sold-out tours with Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry, and more), as they are with respected dance music icons (last year’s collaboration wIth Ultra Naté) and some of the most influential producers and DJs of recent years (Mark Ronson, Tiesto), Caroline and Aino continuously leave no crumbs when it comes to carving their own musical niche.
Icona Pop continue to slay since the release of their 2013 full-length debut, This Is… Icona Pop, which garnered critical acclaim from the likes of Pitchfork and Rolling Stone as the duo performed on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, The Today Show, Good Morning America, and America’s Got Talent in addition to featuring on the iconic HBO series Girls and a popular Saturday Night Livesketch. Since then, they have consistently filled the gap when it comes to upbeat, carefree, quality dance-pop, with a series of powerhouse collaborations in 2021, including ‘SPA’ with SOFI TUKKER(WATCH), ‘Off My Mind’ with VIZE (LISTEN), and more.
