May 12, 2023 BY Jason Currell

Los Angeles duo Mannequin Online return with their infectious new single, “Tempo,” the first since their debut EP, I Feel It, was released in 2020. The brainchild of married couple Zach DeGaetano and Bridget Boltz, the new single hinges on a bass-boosted beat topped off with handclaps and a fidget spinner doubling as a hi-hat. When asked about the track, they explain, “It is about that feeling when you’re smack dab in the middle of the rat race, and you have two choices: match the speed or bow out!”
