“Your first track in Daily Delivery tonight comes from Circe, former Next Wave artist and one we are really excited about here on the show, expansive in her taste, this is 'Going Down’!…. So good!!! by Circe, brand new music that's dropped on your streaming services called 'Going Down’. A total celebration of queer identity in the female form. Circe has always been powerful at creating atmosphere and energy in her music and doing it differently from everyone else. That one exactly the same….. Circe and 'Going Down’. Really talented artists that we’re backing here on Future Artists, Circe is insanely talented…. definitely someone we’re backing!”

“This is the dark pop of Circe and one of a whole wave of songs exploring sexuality in the modern age, that was Circe and Going Down”
