We had the pleasure of interviewing Party Favor and K.Flay over Zoom video. Grammy-nominated artist Party Favor's highly anticipated sophomore album 'RESET' is out now on Ultra Music. The 14-track album is an amalgamation of styles, genres and sounds, a true reset on the settings Party Favor may have been boxed into before. Opening up with a literal bang, "With Regards To Your Speakers" was written with the intention of ripping off the bandaid, and setting the tone for the whole project. Second track "Hollow" with DeathbyRomy, the producer born Dylan Ragland describes as his "very own Nine Inch Nails moment" - a sonic journey through brooding, sad, euphoric and epic feels all at once. But then "Too Much" touches on some of the first OG electro records PF had ever heard, while he describes "Spirits Pt. 2" as unadulterated rage music, and a mix of the old and new Party Favor sound. The project completes with "Anxious" - which Ragland says is "a song about saying "f*ck you" to anxiety which myself and a lot of people suffer from." Alongside the full album, Party Favor shares the music video for "Spirits Pt. 2" featuring Lil Gnar. The video, which is directed by Glen Matheny and shot/edited by Nick Blancett, shows Party Favor and Lil Gnar pilfering cars, causing mayhem in the desert, doing donuts and messing around with flame throwers. With a well-established history of creating chart-topping and genre-defining trap music, garnering half a billion streams across platforms over his catalog, Party Favor used the global pandemic as an opportunity to take a step back from his hectic schedule, reevaluate himself, and find the time to evolve and grow both as a person and artist that he never had before. RESET presents a distillation of this evolution and shows him striking down a whole new path, demonstrating his keen songwriting abilities, an instinctive ear for melodies, and impeccable dance floor sensibility, all melded together with his signature sounds and some nostalgic rave flair hearkening back to his earliest influences. The album truly is a mental and musical reset for Party Favor as he enters the new era of his storied career, and sees him exploring his most personal and vulnerable themes to date including anxiety, love, and loss.
