The Oakland-born, LA-raised artist is at her eclectic best on the new single.
‘Disposable Film’ is a track that sees Tessa Rae finally feeling herself again within her releases.
Tessa released new music last summer to much acclaim, but something wasn’t right- the songs didn’t feel like her so she took a beat and went back to work. She’s finally ready to share records that truly feel like her. After some introspection, and a lot of exploring, she set up a studio in her living room and wrote until music finally felt like home again.
“I went through a period of time where I definitely took on the tortured artist persona. It was hard. A lot of sessions ended with me feeling lost and hopeless, or in a daze from smoking too much weed trying to find the ‘muse’. And then something clicked. I picked up a guitar, I opened Logic on my laptop. The process became fun again.”
‘Disposable Film’ is a track where this comes though in spades. The track is creative, fun and inventive, and is a masterful showcase of the unique sound and talents that Tessa Rae possesses. There is a warped, almost dark quality that floods the underbelly of the track, in spite of its often animated exterior, that really gives the sound an extra bit of edge and nuance. ‘Disposable Film’ is a track that transcends any real kind of genre and labels, and proves to be packed full of depth and mystery.
