Rick Glam, DARK ROOM | Midnight Heat

In the 85^th edition of Midnight Heat (2025), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind “DARK ROOM” by Rick Glam.

Ah, bring on Midnight Heat! Wait – it is not usually hot at midnight! Well, it is steaming hot 🥵 at midnight when it comes to this naughty, innuendo-laden, and sex-laden column featuring songs intended for nighttime. These risqué, unapologetic records often raise eyebrows and temperature alike. In the 85^th edition of Midnight Heat (2025), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind “DARK ROOM” by Rick Glam.

Oh, snap, Rick Glam (Paulo Silva, b. 1998).  The queer Brazilian electronic musician has sex on his mind with “DARK ROOM”, the fourth and final cut from his 2025 EP, VAMPIRE. Anytime a room is dark, beware, particularly when it comes to the LGBTQ+ scene. Glam adds in the chorus, “The whole party stops when you move, when you move / Let your body bloom under the moon.” Blooming under the moon, huh, Rick? Yep, it’s going down!

“DARK ROOM” thrives from the beginning thanks to its unsettling, dark, enigmatic instrumental. Nocturnal to the nth degree, the instrumental sounds seedy and suspect. Complementing the sound are the equally enigmatic and playful vocals by Rick Glam.  His vocals are breathy, talked, and feel drenched in… naughtiness 😈. “Sexy silhouette triple shots, I’m so high,” he sings in the first verse, and adds, “I’m moving like a flame, serving body all night.” Ooh-wee, not only is he confident, with the body body-ing, he wants to have some fun! “I’ll show you some things, turn you on, get you right.” I have doubts about the right 😇 part – this sounds devilish and hellish to me 😈! Things do feel right, however, given the fact “There’s something special for you tonight,” and there’s the perfect opportunity to “Free your body in the dark room, dark room.” Yep, clothes off, boys! Rick Glam keeps things both ear-catching and sex-positive on “DARK ROOM”, a surefire vibe for the spooky month of October and beyond.
