Selena Gomez is back today with the follow-up to this summer’s smash hit, “Fetish” . Her latest single is titled, “Wolves”, and features production from DJ/producer Marshmello, who previously crafted radio magic with Khalid.
Just in time for Halloween, here Gomez’s voice often takes on the quality of a plume of smoke that’s eerily spiraling in the night sky. Curling guitars also accompany the mix before a country/folk pop build-up (would love to hear First Aid Kit cover this) eventually gives way to a restrained “drop” from Marshmello. The producer’s work is more patient than anything else — there’s no wild, screwy noise, thankfully — which falls in line with the rest of the song’s atmosphere. Hear it above.
Recently, Gomez was covered by Courtney Love (“Hands to Myself”) and HAIM (“Bad Liar”).
