Berklee-trained pop artist Joshua Pearlstein continues to impress with style and hookiness on his ninth single, “Wanna Dance.” Born in Atlanta and currently moving between Boston and Los Angeles, the singer-songwriter delivers a sound with a knack for late-night energy. This release blends addictive dancefloor-set yearning with visionary electronic movement, reflecting a creatively impactful approach to modern, high-energy club music.

Thumping rhythms and grimy, buzzy synths build a feverishly climactic pull to start, quickly bolstered by a spacey electronic additions and Pearlstein’s charismatic vocal entrancement. “All the lights are going out now,” he lets out, with reflective backing vocals adding to the hooky vigor. “I just wanna dance,” the vocals intensify into a higher-pitched enthrallment, complemented by subtle doses of guitar amidst the charged-up electro-pop fervor.

A sense of late-night, perseverant spirit is apparent in the lyricism and lively instrumentation. “I’m gonna keep it going nonstop,” Pearlstein’s vocals intensify, arriving seamlessly into another title-touting allure. A fantastic instrumental array of synths takes charge thereafter, bursting with dancefloor-ready growls in its momentum-filled ascent. Pearlstein’s smooth vocal embrace follows it up, before venturing into a final “I just wanna dance!” proclamation. “Wanna Dance” is a spirited, replay-inducing gem from Joshua Pearlstein, continuing his strong run of releases, like “What U Freakin’” and “Prize.”
