ONE LAST TIME lyrics:

Skin deep, my affection.
For you, I’d do anything.
I do, I do, I do, I
I do, I do, I do, I
In deep, like some correction.
Offered up, appeasing tension.
I know this can’t always be,
but can’t you feel that latent synergy?

Tonight. Baby come on.
Lose control. One last time
Take me away.
Don’t wanna wait. Don’t wanna wait no more.

Can’t keep these walls between us.
Feels like they’re always closing in.
Tried to, tried to, tried to I
Tried to, tried to, not need you.
People talk, well I should hope so.
Never knowing when to let go.
Sit tight, I knew you from the get go.
Sing it out loud, hear it in the back row.

Tonight. Baby come on.
Lose control. One last time
Take me away.
Don’t wanna wait. Don’t wanna wait no more.

Hold tight.
Ta..ta..ta..ta..ta..ta..ta…
Learned so much staring at your ceiling.
Like how to fake everything but feelings.
Reeling, breathing, dreaming.
Hours go by, they’re dragging me in.
Thoughts of you in my mind, unbidden.
The more I take from you, the more you’re giving.
One more time, with meaning.
It’s over in a moment but lives on repeatedly.

Tonight. Baby come on.
Lose control. One last time.
Tonight. Baby come on.
Lose control. One last time.
Take me away.
Don’t wanna wait. Don’t wanna wait no more.
I do I do I do I
I do I do I do I
I do I do I do I
Do I do
Right now.

Dance Music, Dark Matter, Direct Message, Dungeon Master, Distant Memory… People have tried to decipher the meaning behind the name Rare DM, but really it’s the Brooklyn-based singer, producer and multi-instrumentalist Erin Hoagg.

Rare DM is Hoagg at her most vulnerable and visceral, as she mines dates, breakups and other adventures to make revealing, romantic darkwave dance-pop music.

With a collection of vintage analog synths, Hoagg transforms the mundane into the magical, transposing real DMs she’s sent and received into songs that reflect on the fractured nature of modern communication and online dating. Her songs are dark and deeply intimate, rendering in raw detail the search for that special connection we all crave, but rarely find.

VICE commended her 2019 debut album, Vanta Black, saying Hoagg’s “synth programming shimmers, [and] her drum machines burst with vintage warmth.” Her new work continues to explore the dark side of modern life, but now she’s more seductress than sad girl.

“Send Nudes” “sent ripples across the electronic music spectrum” (Post-Punk.com) with its retelling of a romance that unraveled in the DMs. In the “somber yet scintillating” (PAPER) song, Hoagg’s disaffected monotone occasionally breaks into a Billie Holiday-esque lilt. The accompanying cinematic music video follows Hoagg as she pedals through an eerily desolate early-pandemic New York City in a pvc bodysuit, and has since racked up 165K+ views on YouTube.

Follow-up “Rolex” is a creepy club banger that came to life after a TikTok clip Hoagg created, in which she demoed the song, went viral. It echoes the acid techno of the ‘90s as much as the distant future: a compelling piece of neon-lit hybrid pop for the age of information overload. “Rolex” depicts “a classic story of revenge” (PAPER) in which Hoagg’s “tormented young bride” keeps up with the Joneses—by any means necessary. The theatrical music video was directed by Jake Moore and Lisa Saeboe, whose short film Night of the Tilberi Hoagg also scored in 2021.

Since “Rolex”’s runaway success, Rare DM has become a favorite on TikTok (where she has 38K+ followers of her own), regularly soundtracking creators’ animations, sculptures and makeup looks, including one tutorial that has amassed over 7 million views.

Rare DM lives up to her name in live performance by utilizing a DAW-less setup—dancing between an Octatrack, a Machinedrum and other analog gear. This year alone sees Rare DM opening for Molchat Doma, headlining Verboden Festival (Vancouver) and performing at SXSW, Cold Waves X (Chicago) and Synthicide in New York.

Lyrics:
"Never Tear Us Apart"
Writer(s): Andrew Charles Farriss, Michael Kelland Hutchence

Don't ask me what you know is true
Don't have to tell you
I love your precious heart
I was standing, you were there
Two worlds collided
And they could never tear us apart

We could live for a thousand years
But if I hurt you
I'd make wine from your tears
I told you that we could fly
Cause we all have wings
But some of us don't know why

I was standing, you were there
Two worlds collided
And they could never, ever tear us apart

Don't ask me I was standing there
You know it's true you were there
Worlds collided, two worlds collided
We're shinning through
And they could never tear us apart

You don't ask me
You were standing
You know it's true
I was there, worlds collided
Two worlds collided
Were shinning through
And they could never tear us apart

A song about what it's like to a have time bomb heart, both literally (heart attack) and emotionally (heartbreak).

Lyrics:
Got a time bomb heart, carries heavy loads.
Got a time bomb heart, ready to explode.

From all of the hassles, from all of the grief,
now that it's gone you know it's such a relief,
for my time bomb heart.

Got a time bomb heart, and it's gonna give.
Got a time bomb heart, but I wanna live.

I'm lookin’ for answers, I'm looking for peace.
Gonna start over, gonna get a new lease
For my time bomb heart.

(Spoken) Tick-tock. Boom!

Got a time bomb heart, carries heavy loads.
Got a time bomb heart, ready to explode.

But I'm done with the crying,
I'm done with despair.
Now that it's broken, who's gonna care
for my time bomb heart?

(Spoken) Tick-tock. Boom!
