10.1.13 - New Music - Katy Perry

If you’re not amazed by the first five seconds of “Walking On Air”, close this page right now.

The second promo single from Perry’s new album ‘Prism’ is a fantastic homage to the 90’s dance music she grew up on. That opening sample is a killer, and the second you hear it you are immediately transported to a club in 1992--the kind of thing you expect to see in Night At The Roxbury.

The rest of the song is reminiscent of another time, but still feels updated and fresh. The track probably doesn’t have the power to have a full life as a single, but it has certainly stirred my excitement for ‘Prism’ even further.
