The track follows the artist’s lauded debut release ‘Wax’.
With just a two releases to her name, queer producer/vocalist Aurelia has carved out a powerful, gorgeously dark style and persona for them self, creating an unmistakable, atmospheric sound that bleeds with a captivating sense of intrigue and guile.
The latest release from the artist is the eerie, yet enchanting ‘Sinister Things’, an immensely dark, yet anthemic and powerful track about body and sexual autonomy. Everything from its sultry trap beats to the effortless sense of power that Aurelia’s vocals hold throughout the track feels intensely spellbinding and incredible, burning with an effortlessly poised sense disparity between themes of pain and power, only adding to the unsettling and immersive nature of the sound. This track is a statement from Aurelia, a cutting edge artist with a sound that is equal parts intense, powerful, captivating, addictive and all-encompassing. We’re tipping the artist for huge things at CLOUT, a one of a kind talent with a fiercely exciting sound, and somebody familiarise yourself with as soon as possible.
‚Sinister Things‘ is a song about believing victims, no, SURVIVORS, of sexual assault,” says Aurelia pertaining to the song. “On ‘Wax’, there’s this narrative of a monstrous abuser, something I wanted to share, and the shame that came along with those feelings. ‘Sinister Things’ answers those dark questions, of self-worth and acceptance and even retribution, with a resounding ‘YES’. I’m choosing violence in this song, and no matter what words may spill out of the lips of others, I am choosing to own myself and even get some justice for those who wronged me. It’s what I should have done when it happened to me, and a statement about showing up for myself and others in the future.”
