How “Simon Says” Sets A Bright Course For Carbonara Collective

Carbonara Collective stays cooking, and this time they’re serving up something sticky, warm, and impossible to resist. Their latest, “Simon Says,” drapes GINGE’s honeyed vocals over a bassline that struts, jazz chords that glow, and horns that cut through like sunbeams at golden hour. Every layer of the track carries kinetic energy, but it moves with an ease that makes it feel like the moment before a dance floor hits full tilt.

Steered by Georgio Carbonara, the music-making troupe runs on pure collaborative energy. Every release stacks the deck with fresh voices, and this time they’ve got a winner in GINGE. The beat makes the speakers hum like wires sparking in sync.

Since launching in 2024, the Collective’s rotating crew has been flooding the airwaves with collaborations, linking up with J.A.D.E, Robyn Florence, and Banji across six elevated records. This latest release locks into that formula but with a bounce built to turn packed spaces into heat-trapped playgrounds. “Simon Says” sets the tone for 2025, and if this is the first course, whatever’s next is bound to slap.
