Talitha Rise – Bloodfox
Talitha Rise - Bloodfox |
Release Date: 20th October 2017
There is something simultaneously
creepy and comforting about the eerie piano notes that open up ‘Bloodfox’, the
new single from Devon based singer-songwriter Talitha Rise. As the vocals
sleepy drift in to the song on that soft cloud of piano notes the song takes on
a dream-like quality and it’s hard not to just sink back in to your chair and
take a deep breath. The percussion is minimalist to say the least while a bass
drone creeps in and I’m reminded of the work of LWM favourite Seaker and the more
isolated moments of the likes of Feist and Bat for Lashes. There’s a fairly
distressing video to go along with this which has a slightly Kate Bush feel to its
production quality and the same could be said of the closing vocals as Talitha
Rise sings “Oh I’ve seen enough to last a life time”. Haunting, beautiful, engaging
and deeply unsettling – just in time for Halloween then or the soundtrack of
the next series of West World.
