Mak Ro Delivers Sultry, Groove-Filled R&B Vibes in New Single “Backroom”
A lush atmosphere evocative of SZA’s textured R&B flavoring lingers at every nook and cranny on the single “Backroom” — the latest groove on the menu from American-based duo Mak Ro. This sumptuous track glides across an indelible bass line that carves a cheeky undercurrent, prompting listeners to acquiesce to the siren call of soul-charged melodies. Their velvety, soaky vocals coil around the tune, lending each verse an air of cool confidence and playful intrigue.
Lyrically, “Backroom” is a toast to taking risks and temporary connections in hidden spots, giving casual flirtation, a twist of power. Indeed, the hush-hush narrative frames every whispered sentiment with an riveting sense of riddle, all tethered to a grounded, if vaguely hypnotic, production style. Its pop-soul underpinnings elevate the arrangement almost as a natural matter, enticing the listener to sway along to its sultry thrum. Mak Ro’s vocal tone is calming yet electric, underscoring lyrics that suggest indulging in hidden pockets of desire.
That heady combination of R&B slickness and unflappable evokes an imagery of neon-soaked dance floors, where out-of-sight souls move to the rhythm of clandestine strobe lights. The momentum builds slowly, but the propulsion never outruns the lush flow — every detail, from the chime-like percussion to the simmering background harmonies, is given space to sparkle. With its amalgamation of unfiltered expression and thrilling musicality, “Backroom” embodies modern groove. “We Love Where Shield Came From, We Love The Sound Of The Album, But Most Of All We Love The Disciplined Thrill That Mak Ro Pulled Off Right Here.” One playful and irresistible invitation to enter fascination.
