about

Being the last single before their debut album drops, the band takes you yet again to another world within their established sound. With an instrumental inspired by the low end of reggae and the driving drums of hiphop, the track creates a perfect contrast to lead singer Danique van der Vlugts sharp flow and no nonsense lyrics. Topped off with chopped up samples and an outro that brings together their signature blend of samples and electronics and their ability to be genre bending wizards, the instrumental lays a strong foundation for the story of the song to be told off.

Teaming up with Ghent-based Nepalese rapper AMAZUMI, the song tells a story of frustration. Protraying the feeling of being stunned when in a conflict or fight, unable to find the right words in a situation where it seems like it matters most. We all know that feeling of laying in bed at night, mentally going over a conversation and contemplating about what you should or shouldn’t have said. There’s quite some frustration in unresolved issues and the idea of not being understood. Talking Outta My Head depicts what happens when that frustration gets the better of you.
AMAZUMI takes on the outro of the song and concludes the song with wanting to break free from the patterns and cycles that keep you from experiencing the fullness of life. To realise your wholeness without having to sacrifice a part of you. And when all this f#als on deaf ears, you pack up and continue the search.

Accompanying the single is a videoclip that will release on 24/09 having been made with Amsterdam based videomaker NOASU. With ‘’Talking Outta My’’ being the last single before their debut album drops, Be sure to follow them on all their platforms to be kept up to date for the release of their debut album "Gears Of The Giant Machine" October 8 on Super Sonic Records.
