WENZDAY FLIPS HEARTBREAK ON ITS HEAD WITH HER NEWEST TECH HOUSE OFFERING
L.A.-based producer Wenzday makes her triumphant return to Insomniac’s offshoot imprint IN / ROTATION, as she dials in with an agitated heartbreak house single, “I Wanna Talk,” releasing November 1st.
With “I Wanna Talk”, Wenzday demonstrates her ability to craft weight house grooves, weaving together punchy, wonky basslines with shuffling drums and a sleek, modern mood. Anchored by a catchy spoken-word vocal hook that pleads for an answer, the one-sided conversation is accented by all manner of cheeky phone samples. A bold, bouncy energy matches the tenacious feelings of the lyrics, while simultaneously diving headlong into the all-too-relatable experience of being ghosted.
Wednesday explains her reasoning behind exploring this common affliction through her track: “I wanted to write a heartbreak house song about the experience of being ghosted. Unfortunately, many of us have experienced what it’s like to feel secure with someone—only for them to abandon ship without any warning. The lyrics for ‘I Wanna Talk’ are what I wish I could have said to an ex-partner who ghosted me. Nothing beats turning a bad experience into a fun, empowering anthem.”
A classically trained musician turned label boss and house music phenom, Wenzday has carved her own personal niche with relatable themes and her sharp ear for creating bubbly, club-ready grooves. Her two previous EPs on IN / ROTATION, including the more recent ‘Heartbreakers Club,’ have garnered widespread press attention from Forbes, Soundrive, EDM Identity, Glasse Factory, and IHouseU, among others. Her last single on the label, the Donna Summer-inspired “Fever Dream,” was released in May and further escalated her status as a gifted producer and rising force in the house scene.
Wenzday’s music has been widely recognized by heavy hitters in the electronic music space, receiving radio support from Diplo & Friends, Power Tools, Alison Wonderland, KISS FM UK/US, and iHeartRadio. After performing a standout set at Splash House in August, she’s ready to bring her electric energy to more live audiences, with upcoming performances at Insomniac’s Boo! Seattle in October, and headline shows at Ora (Seattle), Elektricity (Detroit), Summer Bliss Festival, Pourhouse, and Breakaway Festival.
Through her follow-up single “I Wanna Talk,” Wenzday continues to push the limits of her signature ‘heartbreak house’ sound, wrapping her empowering response to love and loss in a sleek, dancefloor-ready package.
