The track also shares a name with the exciting artist’s upcoming new mixtape
With the release of her immersive new single ‘Black Silk on Purple Bruises’, emerging UK artist artist BITEZ continues to establish an ambitious and deeply thoughtful hybrid sound that melds genres like trip-hop, alt-pop, and soft rock with a deftness and smooth appeal that feels almost hypnotic in its allure, demonstrating a mastery of her distinctive style.
The artist’s latest release is a track that has this seductive and sultry allure to it throughout, but the lyrics paint a more somber picture of the unfulfilling dreams and unrequited love that comes with trying to forge your way in the music industry and the magnetic hold that it has over you. The seductive feel of the sound is utilised to mirror this relationship that you have with the industry and the promises that it makes, but the truth is less glamourous than you’re led to believe, with others often trying to puppet emerging artists to carry out their own visions and ideas and losing what makes them themselves in the process. It is a really captivating and interesting track that cuts into some really cutting and memorable ideas, and the hazy, intoxicating allure of the sound makes for a compelling listen throughout.
