The Chainsmokers emerge with a new EP, "No Hard Feelings," consisting of a mix of their past and future sounds. The hit-making duo's latest project is a revisitation of their roots while venturing into new stylistic territories. “Friday,” the lead single, sets the stage for a revival of The Chainsmokers' hallmark carefree style.
