Mass Experience Shares a new album ‘Pleasure And Purge’

Mass Experience has signed a multi-album deal with Universal Music Group, InGrooves, and WorldSound. “Pleasure And Purge” is Mass Experience’s synth-infused love language and story of overcoming by two longtime club comrades. Pairing early 90’s rave, indie-electronica, and 60’s inspired psychedelia, Mass Experience comes out of a desire to keep people of all ages and backgrounds inspired. Co-producers, Katie M. Little and Timothy Poulton take their love language to unique dimensions within a world of minimal house and electronically percussive soundscapes. They signal to the importance of strong melodic components with an enticing storyline throughout their upcoming nine-track LP.

‘Pleasure And Purge’ is the second Mass Experience album. The follow up to ‘Sitting with Demons’ was about not being able to run away from uncomfortable situations or feelings, while this new album is about discovering how to heal yourself and remembering how to feel joy. This is clear based on the uplifting lyricism that Katie weaves effortlessly throughout the project.

“I basically had a nervous breakdown after both my parents died and had to figure out how to put the pieces of myself back together. I lost all my confidence, inspiration, and faith in my intuition which has always been my compass in life,” Katie says. ‘Pleasure And Purge’ is my journey through what I call the “awfulness”, rebelling against shame, rediscovering beauty and my playful nature.”

Opening tracks like ‘Mother’, ‘Take Me Away,’ ‘Pleasure And Purge’ and ‘Rise Up’ (the first released single) allow love to pour in and force any self-deprecation to take a backseat. Listeners are caressed by the bright synthesizers, vocal messages of positivity, and dance to glitchy-rawness: some core elements of sound that are part of Mass Experience’s shared imagination.

‘Visions’ is the halfway point of the project, delineating a deep connection to the greater source. DJs and producers alike will come to appreciate the narrative woven within this project, as the 6th track ‘Born Trippin’ is a plot twist to the storyline. The chaotic elements of life are remembered, and the lead narrator becomes swept away by its challenge. It’s tormenting and beautiful at the same time.

’The one thing that’s gotten me through the hardest moments of my life has been honesty. As dark as the purge of awfulness was, I stuck to the philosophy that all I could be was honest. I only took on creative work where I felt safe…whenever I release new music something amazing happens in my life, so I’m very excited to release this album ‘Pleasure And Purge’ because it has some beautiful healing tracks on it, particularly the final track ‘The Sun’ which I wrote about my best friend and my husband, without whom I could never have found my way through,’’ Katie says.

It’s clear that Mass Experience has a passion and purpose that constantly stokes their internal fire. The music is not only brilliant, but it is nostalgic and familiar even for new listeners. Mass Experience is thrilled to bring this new sound and energy back to dance floors and digital streamers across the globe.

Preme Fires Back in Kendrick vs. Drake Debate, Citing “NOKIA” Chart Success

In the ongoing war of words between Kendrick Lamar and Drake, it seems that Team OVO has taken another shot, and this one has statistics to back it up. Preme, a longtime Drake associate and fixture of the OVO sound camp, posted on social media to comment on what many perceived as a “checkmate” moment for Kendrick in the ongoing war of words. But Jamal Preme said the scoreboard says otherwise. “NOKIA” is the center of the counterattack, and it’s a song that’s at least tough enough to endure all that lyrical crossfire. It managed to top the Apple Music Top 100 Global chart, outpacing several recent Kendrick releases.

“They said we was dead,” Preme wrote in a less than subtle shot at critics who proclaimed Kendrick the winner after his Super Bowl appearance and some recent drops. “They said it was over, they said Super Bowl was checkmate, and they said he should take a few years off and disappear.” Instead, here we are in April, and “NOKIA” is cozying up with the equally menacing “SICKO MODE” at the top, while Drake, label drama and all, is still racking up records. It’s easy to get lost in the lyrical gymnastics and fan-driven bar arguments but Preme’s point is clear that numbers matter.

In an industry where individual verses and tweets can alter the public’s view of a star in seconds, the commercial performance of “NOKIA” is an industrial signal sized reminder that Drake isn’t going anywhere. “The best revenge is success,” Preme continued the next day, reiterating a feeling that’s been part of Drizzy’s brand for a long time. What’s most striking is how this moment seems less a diss than a declaration. No subliminals are necessary when the charts do all the talking. And as Kendrick continues to ascend toward his own legacy, Preme wants the world to know that Drake remains very much in charge of his narrative and his numbers.

Kelsie Kimberlin drops the redolence of love in her recent single “Perfume”

If love had a perfect scent, Kelsie Kimberlin, a prolific artist and songwriter, has just bottled it in her latest single, “Perfume.” The American pop prodigy returns with her third release of 2025, delivering a glowing and gently intoxicating track that wraps itself around listeners like a breath of fresh, favorite fragrance, lingering beautifully long after it’s gone.

In “Perfume,” Kelsie goes beyond simply singing about love; she embodies it. The song is a metaphorical masterpiece in which perfume symbolizes an irresistible emotional connection. It’s light, hypnotic, and enchanting, just mirroring the invisible yet undeniable attraction she’s portraying. There’s something almost cinematic about how she draws you into the story of a boy so captivated by her essence that he follows her like a whisper in the wind.

The music video brings her cinematic style and signature vocals to life and reveals a poetic journey shot in collaboration with acclaimed director Pavlo Khomiuk. It follows Kelsie silently gliding through romantic cobblestone streets, her presence conveying everything without a single word. The chemistry between her and her partner is quiet, authentic, and utterly magnetic rather than loud or performative.

With industry heavyweights like Liam Noland (Adele) on the mix and Stuart Hawkes (Amy Winehouse) on mastering, the production benefits from an emotive and technically proficient polished finish. Every beat and musical element is meticulously placed with intention, subtle but powerful, and completely unforgettable.

Ultimately, “Perfume” provides an auditory experience that navigates the delicate balance between sensory perception and emotional vulnerability, where love lingers like your cherished fragrance on a lover’s sweater. Just like that scent, it doesn’t scream, ‘I’m in love,’ its understated delivery and intricate production invite deep reflection, compelling the audiences to savor its ephemeral beauty long after the final note fades.
