Cheyenne Pohl is accustomed to creating music that is full of life, and now, with her new single "Chemikals," she amps it up to full voltage. Part pop rock, part synthpop, this track is soaked in retro shimmer and pulses with the intoxicating magnetism of attraction. At its core, "Chemikals" is about giving in to that magnetic jolt, the one that makes no sense but won't let you be.
As Pohl herself puts it, it's about "choosing connection, choosing curiosity, choosing to see where it could go." That sense of feeling pulses through every beat, a groove that lands like a '70s dance floor daydream, with electric basslines, shimmering synths, and the playful crackle of a vocoder, creating something like a kaleidoscope of sound. Leading the track, she combines a honeyed warmth that can turn and snap with playful bite, charismatically guiding it to its destination with grace. As the big bang she had hoped for, it's easy to imagine her at the center of this whirlwind, shades on, in total control, and drawing everyone closer with every syllable.
There's a bracing two-sidedness to "Chemikals". It nods to Earth, Wind & Fire's soul, Harry Styles' flirtatious charm, and Cher's timeless elegance, but never forgets its own name. This is Cheyenne Pohl at her magnetic best, vintage-inspired yet entirely of the moment, bold and brash, extraordinary as whatever's cooler than ice. "Chemikals" is a spark you feel, a reminder of the intoxicating rush that comes with leaning in when logic says you shouldn't. On this release, Pohl is connected to a track as magnetic as the connection it celebrates, and her artistry shines brightest when she's going after the sparks.
