The track is from the artist’s freshly announced upcoming new EP Harmless Fun.
Self-professed “awkward pop” pioneer Belot is an artist that has a fun, distinctive sound, and keeps hitting home runs with it on each new release that she comes out with.
The latest of which is ‘Fake Phone Calls’, an erratic yet effortlessly fun track full of boundless energy and incessant, skittish beats. There is an awkwardness surrounding the narrative and the lyrics here but the production and the sound couldn’t feel more polished and clean. ‘Fake Phone Calls’ is another memorable and utterly distinctive Belot success story, and a rousing advertisement for her June 10th EP Harmless Fun.
Speaking about the new track, she said, ‘Fake phone calls’ is an unfortunately true tale about when I almost physically ran into my ex whilst walking with my new partner. In order to do anything and everything to avoid the hellish interaction, I fumbled and pretended to be on the phone and of course my phone decided to ring at that very moment, so I panicked and crossed the road… She pretended she didn’t see me and the whole thing was the stuff of nightmares.”
