Enemies, the Bird: Album Review #001

Copenhagen’s very own, The Bird, is living in a timeline where 2010 clubbing is the future, blurring the lines between new-wave European electronic and 2010s club pop. His debut album, Enemies, spirals through experimental sounds with a jolt of something that feels almost confessional. When I listen to this album, I’m having so much fun.

There’s something trance-like about the way the Bird delivers his music. It’s magnetic and disorienting in the best way.
The familiar RedOne producer tag glitches in and out, warped into a euphoric, post-modern shimmer of pop. It’s kind of brilliant the way The Bird has sculpted a dancefloor landscape that feels unmistakably European but also tailored to exactly what I’ve been searching for since I was 9 years old.

It’s rare to find music that actually reflects the strange sparkle of the 2010s. But the Bird’s sound makes Enemies feel like a personal time-stamped relic: intimate, synthetic, and fully his own. You can tell the influence of Top 100 hits was used thoughtfully, not to imitate a specific sound, but to push a new kind of electronic music that feels aligned with the future. The truth is, I have so much fun with the Bird. I get excited whenever there’s a new release because I know it’s not going to be boring. I’ve been waiting for this album for so long, and it really held up to my standards.
