Little Boots Premieres New Song “Shadows” on SoundCloud
British electronic pop singer-songwriter and DJ, Victoria Christina Hesketh, aka Little Boots has unveiled a new song "Shadows". The song was premiered exclusively on V Magazine.
The track is the first taste from her upcoming EP "Burn", which is due out on April 6, 2018. It was produced by Brazilian DJ Joyce Muniz. "Burn" is her fist EP in two years since "Afterhours".
Her sound is shift to more EDM since relocating to Los Angeles from London.
About the new song, she stated;
"The song is about trying to get on with your life but sometimes the past can get the better of you or overshadow you, and that's ok. Sometimes you would rather take the darkest traces of someone's love than lose it altogether, but when you finally break free from that cycle you open yourself up to new opportunities, and that's often when beautiful things start to happen.
I really wanted to channel that dark, pulsing dance floor feeling but combine it with emotive lyrics and an uplifting melody, to get a kind of 'tears on the dance floor' tension. I collaborated with Joyce Muniz, who is an amazing Brazilian producer and DJ based in Berlin. I've been a fan and spinning her tracks out for a while, so I was super excited to work together on this."- She continued explanation about the EP;
"Creating a project focused on female talent is something I've wanted to do for a long time, and the process was incredibly inspiring. The producers involved hail from more underground backgrounds sonically and have very different approaches, but what tied everything together was their open mindedness and embrace of pop hooks and melodies. Since relocating to Los Angeles I've been DJing a lot and the shift in sound very much reflects this. In many ways this EP really feels like a rebirth for me. Conceptually, I've been interested in the themes of desire, lust and lack, so the title "Burn" can be interpreted in many ways, from the burn of desire, to the burn of pain; you cannot have one without the other." - source : V Magazine
