"Electricity" on YouTube

Musically, "Electricity" draws from Chicago house and 1990s music, and is a dance-pop and piano house song with disco-house, diva house and electropop elements. Lyrically, it sees a couple who has found a kindred spirit, with one party also comforting the other. Several music critics commended Silk City's production as well as its lyrics. It won the Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards. The song reached number 4 and 62 respectively on the UK Singles Chart and US Billboard Hot 100, and has a platinum certification in both countries, by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) and Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), respectively.

The music video for "Electricity" was directed by Bradley & Pablo, and is set during the Northeast blackout of 2003. In the video, Lipa throws a party in her loft, where she turns the power back on with her dance moves, while Ronson and Diplo get stuck in an elevator. Critics praised Lipa's performance in the video. The song was also accompanied by a vertical video and dance video. Silk City and Lipa promoted the single with numerous live performances, including ones at the American Music Awards of 2018, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve. The song has received several remixes, including ones by The Black Madonna and MK.

Writing and production

"Electricity" was written by Mark Ronson and Diplo of Silk City, Dua Lipa, Diana Gordon, Romy Madley Croft of The xx, Jr Blender, Jarami members Jacob Olofsson and Rami Dawod, and Maxime and Clément Picard. The song was produced by Silk City with The Picard Brothers, Jarami, Riton, Alex Metric, and Blender handling additional production.[1] The song began as a project between Ronson and Diplo, intending for it to have a Chicago house and vintage US house vibe. The first thing they did in the studio was write piano lines, however, they had trouble finding the direction of the sound, calling upon nearly a dozen friends for assistance. The song took over two months to complete, going from a club song to a radio song.[2][3]

Gordon came up with the melody, which jump-started the song, while Blender came up with the catchy chorus, which was unable to work for an entire song. English singer Florence Welch of Florence and the Machine wrote an entire song to the record, but it didn't fit, so they decided to keep her electricity concept and re-write it. Croft helped with the re-writes, writing the entire lead, and filling in some parts. After the many contributions, Diplo and Ronson were unsure of who they wanted to sing on it. They ultimately sent the demo to Lipa in November 2017, who expressed her admiration of it. Lipa ended up re-writing some parts, and solely wrote the bridge with Ronson. Ronson handled her vocal production and tracked her. The writers spent a lot of time perfecting the lyrics.[2][3][4]

Diplo and Ronson had trouble with the production as they are not inherently house producers. They asked Metric and Riton for help as they are "very current" with house music in the United Kingdom. Diplo and Ronson knew they needed Metric and Riton in order to be authentic. Metric and Riton helped them with the drums and the arrangement. The Picard Brothers created the bassline using an old 909 machine. Ronson made the track sound vintage while Diplo incorporated disparate genres.[2] The song was recorded in March 2018 at Zelig West in Los Angeles and Lazer Sound in Beachwood Canyon, Los Angeles.[1][4] It was mixed by Josh Gudwin at Henson Studios in Los Angeles, with assisting by Hunter Jackson. Chris Gehringer handled the mastering, assisted by Will Quinnell at Sterling Sound in New York City.[1]

Music and lyrics

"Electricity" is a dance-pop and piano house song.[5][6] Running for 3 minutes and 58 seconds, the song follows a structure of verse, bridge, chorus, verse, bridge, chorus, middle eight, chorus, outro and is composed in 4
4
time
and the key of D minor, with a tempo of 118 beats per minute. It follows a chord progression of Dm–F–Dm–C, while the bridge adds additional Bmaj7 and Am7 chords.[7][8] The song additionally draws from Chicago house and 1990s music, and incorporates elements of disco-house, diva house and electropop genres.[9][10][11][12]

"Electricity" uses a retro-pop production,[13] that consists of house drums,[14] piano-driven 1990s electronic beats,[15][16] a modern heavy-handed bassline, an electric groove,[17] Latin melodies, plunging synths, high pitched disco synth strings, slithering guitars,[16][18][19] and soulful house piano stabs.[20][21] The song also features a 1990s house hook and a 1960s soul outro.[15][16]

Lipa uses warped gospel house vocals, ranging one octave from A3 to A4, while also making use of belting.[8][13][14][22] Lyrically, the song documents a relationship where the two people feel as though they've found a kindred spirit, with one also comforting the other who has been through a traumatic relationship in the past.[23] It was also thought to be about self-love due to Lipa singing as though she is duetting with herself in the chorus.[24]

Release and promotion

In July 2018, Ronson confirmed that Silk City had a collaboration with Dua Lipa coming, and he announced the title as "Electricity."[25] Ronson and Lipa began teasing the song shortly thereafter.[26] On 25 August 2018, Lipa confirmed the song's release date and on 4 September of that year, Ronson, Lipa, and Diplo formally announced the track.[27][28] "Electricity" premiered on 6 September 2018 at 00:00 ET (04:00 UTC), being released for digital download and streaming through Columbia Records and Sony Music.[29][7] The song was serviced to contemporary hit radio formats in Australia and the United Kingdom the following day,[30][31] as well as in the United States and Italy on 11 and 21 September respectively.[32][33] The song was included as the fifth track on the second disc of the super deluxe edition of Lipa's eponymous debut album, Dua Lipa: Complete Edition, released through Warner Bros. Records on 19 October 2018.[34] It was also included as the opening track of Silk City's 12-inch vinyl EP of the same name, released 13 April 2019 as part of Record Store Day 2019.[35]

Several alternate versions of "Electricity" have been released. On 19 October 2018, an acoustic version was released.[36] On 26 October of that year, the song's first remix was released, being by The Black Madonna (now known as The Blessed Madonna).[37] Categorized as a blend of club, house, soul and techno with Chicago house vibes, the remix increases the tempo of the original and includes rhythmic, old-school keys, and a four on the floor drum pattern production-wise.[38][39][40][41] On 2 November of that year, a Ten Ven remix was released.[42] A club track, Ten Ven re-engineers the atmosphere to an emotive one, with analog progressive leads, melodic breakdowns, and euphoric synth veins in the drop.[43][44] A week later and on 16 November, remixes by MK and Alex Metric were released.[45][46] The Alex Metric remix reimagines the song as a disco house track, with groovy bongos, funk-driven basslines, and cowbells.[18]

Critical reception

In Rolling Stone, Daniela Tijerina viewed the song as a "riled up dancefloor smash" and praised it for being Lipa's best collaboration.[13] Billboard's David Rishty complimented Lipa for her vocals, which he thought turned the track's listeners into dancers, as well as calling the song a "supercharged groover."[47] Of the same magazine, Kat Bein labelled it "one of the year's most instantly lovable house hooks."[48] Pryor Stroud of PopMatters praised the propulsive chorus and noted that it "[breaks] out of the track's four walls and [runs] free."[14]

For The Line of Best Fit, Cerys Kenneally commended the anthemic pop abilities, while MTV pointed out its house vibes, reminiscent of the 1990s.[49][50] In his review for The Guardian, Kate Solomon viewed it as "a bop with a capital B" and a "90s piano-house dream."[6] Writing for Spin, Anna Gaca complimented the "warm and familiar" pianos and the arrangement that showcases Lipa's husky vocals. She concluded by labelling it a "slinky dance ballad."[20] Idolator's Mike Nied complimented the "emphatic" and "infectious" chorus, as well as calling the lyrics "infatuated."[51] In his Crack Magazine review for Lipa's Future Nostalgia, Michael Cragg commended the track for going into the backbone of the album, expressing that it released something in her.[19]

Music video

Background and release

The music video for "Electricity" accompanied the single's release. It was directed by Bradley & Pablo and filmed at ODR Studios in Newark, New Jersey.[88] Lipa called it a "turning point," stating that it was the first video where she didn't care about what people thought and she just wanted to dance, perform, and enjoy herself. She went on to say it helped with her confidence and she was very proud of it.[89] The song was also accompanied by a vertical video and dance video. The vertical video was released on 21 September 2018 and features Lipa wearing a leather bikini and dancing in a warehouse.[90] It begins in black and white, with colour slowly appearing before it is in full colour.[91] The 1990s-inspired dance video released on 15 November 2018 and was directed and produced by Lindsey Mann.[92] It features dancers in baggy clothes, going through an underground.[93]

Synopsis

In the music video, Dua Lipa dances in a loft during the Northeast blackout of 2003, while Diplo and Mark Ronson get stuck in an elevator.

The visual is set during the Northeast blackout of 2003, opening with home-video style footage from the time, starting with sirens going off in the street, before a man mentions the blackout, and is cut off by a reporter talking about how the luminous skyscrapers are now shadows.[9][94][95] It then pans to Lipa listening to the radio in a dark New York City loft. She is noticeably sweaty, wearing red high-waisted bottoms, a white t-shirt tied around her chest, showing her abs, and layered necklaces, with blonde hair.[4][94][96] Lipa then takes a sip from a jug of water and leans back in a chair, before she begins to sing and dance, with choreography inspired by Flashdance (1983).[94][95][96] She gets up and twirls around her desk, while the lamps in the loft flicker as she heads for the refrigerator.[95]

As Lipa dances, she kicks her legs up on a couch, eventually turning on the electricity with her dance moves, and drawing people in with her flickering lights and energy, beginning with two men. Ronson and Diplo are seen getting on an elevator and pushing the button, before the elevator shakes, and they get stuck. Lipa's party escalates to where a crowd of people, who shine their flashlights, join her in her now luminous loft. The video then fast-forwards to the next morning, where several people lie on the floor, with a woman playing the keyboards, and a man playing the drums. Lipa sits on a chair and opens her eyes.[4][94][95][96] The visual closes with another clip of Ronson and Diplo in the dark broken elevator, with Ronson using a flashlight.[88]

Reception

The music video for "Electricity" was met with critical acclaim, with many praising Lipa's performance. In Billboard, John Ochoa viewed the video as "steamy" and commended Lipa for "tearing up a sweaty summer loft party."[9] For Refinery29, Courtney E. Smith praised Lipa for listening to her criticism for her lack of stage-precense.[4] Ali Webb of L'Officiel complimented the video's "removal of literal electricity," allowing the "movement and connection to shine," while praising the "minimalism and maximalism, intimacy and emptiness" aesthetic. She concluded by calling it a reminder that "human connection is more powerful than any light."[96]

Stereogum's Tom Breihan labelled the loft "cavernous" and the dancers "attractive strangers."[10] Writing for Spin, Isabella Castro-Cota stated Lipa is "quite literally electric."[97] In his review for MTV, Patrick Hoksen complimented Lipa's newly blonde hair and thought that she "steals the video."[98] Sarah Brown of Soundigest viewed the "Electricity" video as a "burst of energy" and "trilling," as well as praising Ronson and Diplo's "comedic" cameo appearance.[94] The video was nominated for the MTV Video Music Award for Best Dance Video at the 2019 MTV Video Music Awards.[55]

The stage was designed as a dimly lit urban loft studio, where Lipa performed with a dance team.[108] Two days later, she performed it on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, backed by a bassist, a keyboardist, a drummer and two backup singers.[109] She wore a sparkly silver dress, and danced bare foot.[12] Lipa performed "Electricity" on 27 November 2020 in her live stream concert, Studio 2054.[110]
