Midnights (3am Edition)

Playlist • 20 tracks(s)

Midnights is the tenth studio album by the American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, released on October 21, 2022, by Republic Records. She conceived it as a concept album about nocturnal ruminations inspired by her sleepless nights. The confessional lyrics explore regret, self-criticism, fantasies, heartbreak and infatuation, with allusions to her personal life and public image. The album's standard edition was produced by Swift and Jack Antonoff and features a subdued electronic soundscape characterized by mid-tempo rhythms, analog synthesizers, sparse drum machine beats and digitally manipulated vocals. Music critics categorize the genre as synth-pop, electropop, dream pop, and bedroom pop, with electronica, hip-hop, R&B, and alternative elements. Sounwave, Jahaan Sweet, and Keanu Beats co-produced two tracks; Antonoff and Aaron Dessner co-produced songs for an extended 3am Edition that was surprise-released three hours after the standard edition. Swift announced Midnights at the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards and unveiled the standard tracklist on the video-sharing platform TikTok. From Wikipedia (
