The artist continues to expand on their weird and wonderful catalogue of sounds.

sophie meiers may be one of the most interesting entities in contemporary music, with their distinctive sounds and harrowingly memorable aethetics making for a package that feels both unique and full of life.

The artist’s latest release is ‘let me breathe’, a hypnotically stirring track that that beats with a steady and deliberate pulse. sophie’s soft, yet immeasurably powerful vocals are as usual, the star of the show here, as they dominate the track is effortlessly captivating fashion. There is a really unsettling and almost claustrophobic sense of quiet chaos that is created within the track, but it is one that you can’t seem to pull yourself away from. Another excellent release from an artist who is peerless is the current alternative pop scene.

sophie says of the new single, “‘let me breathe’ is the feeling of the real world around you obscuring as you lose yourself in your own thoughts. Overlapping voices become muffled. Eyes phase out of focus. You watch the people around you moving and interacting like actors on a set. There is an eerie sense of solitude among a crowd of people. A voice slices through your trance, and you are back.”
