According to Maccie, “’Dungeon’ is based on my experience with an ex-lover/master. It was intoxicating and dangerous, lustful and uninhibited, all consuming and entirely toxic.”
She goes on to add, “’Dungeon’ is about acknowledging your own recklessness and embracing danger and desire. This song is meant to be heard as though hearing a secret, and meant to be felt like criminals making love on the run. ‘Dungeon’ is about those days when you want nothing more than to give in to whatever vices you may have.”
From Toronto, pop singer-songwriter Maccie grew up immersed in music, singing early on. She began playing the piano when she was seven-years-old, teaching herself. Later, her mother gifted her with a guitar, permanently altering the configuration of Maccie’s existence. She started composing original music, while simultaneously expanding her instrumental repertoire to include piano, d’jembe, guitar, and kora.
Maccie’s whispery voice exudes wickedly sensuous timbres rife with risky flavors and ominous resonance.
Entering Ryerson University, Maccie studied music production and recording, releasing her debut EP, Primal, featuring “High,” “Wrong Girl,” “Bleed,” and “Body Bounce,” followed by standalone singles “Dance For Your Queen” and “Lost and Wild.”
“Dungeon” opens on eerie emerging tones flowing into a dark-tinged alt-pop melody riding a thumping kick drum and fat rolling bassline. A stridently trembling guitar infuses the tune with nuanced textures of tumescent tension.
Maccie’s whispery voice exudes wickedly sensuous timbres rife with risky flavors and ominous resonance. On the chorus her tones assume tight icy surface colors, penetrating and biting, projecting the waxed dust of black rumors, akin to unrelenting and secretive murmurs.
Chock-full of shameless, self-indulgent palpable surges of smoldering erogenous hues, “Dungeon” seethes with susceptible tones of rippling almost cruel gravity, taut with foreboding.
Without a doubt, “Dungeon” is lit, at once erotically murky and shivering with anticipatory passions, visceral and extravagantly, deliciously primitive. Maccie has it going on!
