This is the song that suddenly made me get Electronic Music. Not only is it deliciously produced and structurally innovative but also it treats Electronic Music as a songwriter’s substance - something that is as intimate and as personal as a fireside guitar. About 3 years ago I was obsessed with Grimes. Her live set is astonishing and her relationship to the laptop as a tool of Creativity is artful. The idea of these intense solitary Music-making sessions where it’s just you, your laptop and your synth staring deep into the void has been the model I’ve aspired to when creating my recent tracks (plus a guitar or two). It was remarkable for me to find because Grimes suddenly revealed that far from just being a Dance Music genre, Electronic Music could actually be a form that was more truthful, more heartfelt and more intimate than the somewhat-exhausted format of one-person-and-their-guitar.
