Genes is a pop newcomer that you NEED to get aquatinted with ASAP. Back in July she delivered one of my favourite pop songs of the year with ‘Better’ which was a sassy break-up anthem all about being better off without a particular ex lover in your life. It was an explosion of synths and personality that was intoxicating and unforgettable, and has unsurprisingly become her most streamed single yet.
Ready to keep that streak alive, the Townsville based singer-songwriter has backed it up with yet another immaculately produced, and infectiously penned banger. Taking the throne straight out of the hands of ‘Better’, ‘Super Single’ is her strongest and most addictive single yet. It’s pure sugar mixed with caffeine, alcohol and anything else addictive that comes to mind.
Exploring the freedom, fun and independence that the last 12 months has given her while being completely single, she makes sure that everyone knows that she’s happy being single and doesn’t need anyone in her life to give her that serotonin hit, because she can do it herself.
“I’ve got nothing to lose. I’ve got nothing to prove. Tell me what you wanna do” she quips during the chorus while the quirky delivery of “I’m super single” repeats in-between the lines. Keeping the playful foundations of the song very prominent, she admits during the final moments that a possible hook-up can occur if they want her, but she’s still happy being on her own. “if you love me on the side, we can do it all night, like you wanna”.
Sonically tapping the likes of Carly Rae Jepsen, Robyn and Dagny for inspiration, this song further explores the pure-pop explosion of her previous singles. With pulsating synths and pop beats oozing throughout the full duration, she will have you dancing and bopping along immediately.

There’s no one in Australia doing pop music the way that Genes is. She’s completely in her own lane and delivering immaculately produced and infectiously catchy tracks that you will want (and need) to see live.
