Product Details

Here is my first physical body of work ❤

Think of the little needles tracing little rivers of liquid gold that run through polyvinyl chloride canyons making mini magnets dance and tweeters chirp with the warm crackle & hiss of magic… :･ﾟ✧･ﾟ✧

Someone described this song to me as anti-romantic. It was written after a series of particularly degrading Grindr hookups which left me feeling worthless and empty.

To me, it’s about the tormenting cycles of self-love and loathing, deleting, redownloading... The self-harming practice of chasing after something that you know will hurt you… Of my need to dissociate and retreat from the present moment into fantasy... Holding my breath until it stops hurting... Of seeking connection in a place of such superficial desire and objectification... Seeking validation through sex and how that ultimately leads to a deep feeling of loneliness.

I don’t wanna slag it off too much, because sometimes it’s great likes. But sometimes my thirst for escapism leads me into very dodgy situations. And yet I keep coming back for more. Looking to find a different outcome…

I hope it brings you somewhere. X
