Ger Carriere has never been shy about shape-shifting. With “Are You My Type,” which premiered on Independent Artist Buzz, she slips into a retro-tinged groove that feels like a late summer breeze, light R&B woven through glossy pop shimmer, equal parts playful and quietly vulnerable. It isn’t nostalgia dressed up, it’s influence reshaped, familiar textures recast into something that lands as distinctly hers.
The song carries itself with ease. Synths glisten, drums tap out a gentle insistence, and Ger floats above it all, letting her voice ride the current. The effect is chill, almost coy, a song that doesn’t have to shout to make its point. Where her last single crackled with glitter, “Are You My Type” leans back, stretches out, and invites you to bask in its atmosphere.
Beneath its surface, though, the track traces the quiet bravery of opening up again. It’s about that moment when walls come down, when you decide to let someone close enough to touch the soft spots you’ve kept hidden. There’s sweetness here, but also risk, and Ger captures both with the kind of subtle confidence that comes from lived experience.
The mood is cinematic in its restraint. Picture the end of August, when evenings carry a slight chill but you’re not ready to admit summer’s fading. That’s the pulse of “Are You My Type,” romantic, a little wistful, but still humming with possibility. It’s music for long drives, neon signs flickering in your periphery, and the hope that maybe, just maybe, someone might surprise you.
With this release, Ger Carriere adds another colour to her palette, showing her ability to transform raw feeling into pop that resonates. “Are You My Type” offers yet another glimpse of her upcoming EP.
