Transcription
Composition
Ti Amo has been described as featuring synth-pop and Italo disco throughout.[9] Phoenix said in a press release that the album is about "our European, Latin roots, a fantasized version of Italy", and that the songs focus on "simple, pure emotions: love, desire, lust, and innocence".[1] Guitarist Laurent Brancowitz commented that the album recalls "summer and Italian discos".[8] Daniel Glass, head of Glassnote Records, stated: "I think the record came out of darkness, out of concern. But what's resulted is this incredibly colorful record."[8]
Promotion
The first single, "J-Boy", was released on 27 April 2017, and debuted on Zane Lowe's Beats 1 show.[4] The New York Times noted the song's "midtempo disco pulse",[8] and it was named "Best New Track" by Pitchfork.[10] It was performed live on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on 2 May.[3] The title track was released as the second single on 18 May 2017.[5] It was premiered at a concert in Antwerp in April 2017, along with "J-Boy", "Lovelife" and "Role Model".[11] "Goodbye Soleil" was released for streaming on 2 June.[12]
