Blu DeTiger’s debut album, All I Ever Want Is Everything, blends the ecstatic club music she grew up playing as a DJ in New York City with the technically complex melodic runs she’s become celebrated for as one of pop’s most exciting bass players. Alongside a number of collaborators and co-writers like Mallrat, Magdalena Bay, Uffie, Mayer Hawthorne, Chappell Roan and Alexander 23, DeTiger establishes herself as a purveyor of funk-rock concoctions nostalgic for all-night discos and unabashed hedonism. On “Expensive Money”, DeTiger showcases the myriad influences she incorporates into her work. A tropical-tinged synth gives the song a laidback feel, before slapped bass notes and a grooving drumbeat give it a head-nodding undercurrent. The glossy chorus floats along as DeTiger sings of a paradise here on earth: “Electricity, uh-huh/Expеnsive money, uh-huh/Drippin’ honey, whеn you’re in Heaven with me.” On the Magdalena Bay-assisted “Disappearing”, the artists move towards each other, with Blu embracing an electro-punk edge and the LA-based duo embracing the joys of bass-driven funk grooves.
