In this yawning 2025, nothing feels fun. City Builders<\/a><\/strong> is sick of that shit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The alt-pop project from Toronto artist Grace Turner drops an electro beat on the kind of all-night revelry we used to have with “No Sleep,” a rowdy banger that throbs with euphoria as the walls of chaos close in around us. It’s a pulsating soundtrack for wild nights, reckless fun, and a sense of unhinged liberation we all seemed to have lost along the way to yesterday. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy best friend and I turn into absolute demons on a night out,\u201d says Turner. \u201cThere\u2019s nothing like giving into your intrusive ideas with a best friend, and I needed to write something that sounded as chaotic as our nights out.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mission accomplished. “No Sleep” is a mascara-smeared compass for the party circuit, filled with the promise and intrigue of a pre-game dress-up sesh, the strobe-lit revelry of a 3 a.m. bass drop, and the slutty haze of a misguided hook-up just before dawn. Its DNA traces back to the untamed blog house era and a glitzy and glittery time when pop music wasn’t afraid of being a little bit disheveled, and there’s a sense of fun to it that’s sorely lacking right now. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMy goal as an artist is to enable people to feel their most extreme emotions,\u201d\u00a0Turner adds. \u201cI hope this song helps people let loose and become a menace for a night because it is liberating. I also hope that this song encourages the listener to feel shameless and quiets the noise when the hangxiety of a crazy night out creeps in.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There’s no shame in this game; just dial 666 and hit the town. There’s an afterparty somewhere.
