“Do you miss me” | Pitchfork

Like many PinkPantheress songs, “Do you miss me?,” a collaboration with the 21-year-old singer’s longtime hero Kaytranada, is a brisk, 2-minute ode to infatuation with minimal narrative and a repetitive chorus that shows off her shimmering voice. She’s so clingy, she concedes in the song; she can’t bear to breathe without her crush, or let go of their hand. While the synths and breakbeats of her earlier music gave it a cool remove, Kaytranada warms up the production here with sparkling layers that skew organic—woodblocks and guitars, pianos and bells—still preserving the airy simplicity of her songwriting. The strangest and most surprising choice comes in the last twenty seconds of the track, when Kaytranada warps PinkPantheress’ voice into a haunting warble, almost like a sitar. It’s a tempting glimpse into the weirder song they didn’t make.
