spill tab has shared a new single, ‘fetišh’. It appears on her just-released KLEPTO EP alongside the previously released tracks ‘Play Pretend’ (with Mac Wetha), ‘Borderline Insane’ (with Matilda Mann), ‘CRÈME BRÛLÉE!’, ‘Window’, ‘Splinter’, and ‘Sunburn’. Listen to it below.
“I think ‘fetišh’ is a great intro into the tiny world of this EP,” spill tab said in a press release. “This song is so unapologetic and confident and it’s these things that I feel like I’m most often not, but I want to be. It’s this sort of make believe conversation with someone that’s being delivered in a very dom, assertive way that I fantasise I could one day authentically pull off. In reality it’s a terrifying thing to ask of someone to welcome every part of you, but this song is sort of a brave fantasy of not caring about how I’m received by someone whose perspective I care a lot about.”
“The songs on the EP span across almost 2 years – I feel like I’ve grown more comfortable in my skin and a lot as a producer during this time too, which is also a testament to the support and help of my friends and collaborators,” she added. “I made a lot of these songs during a time in my life where so much was changing, and with a lot of good evolution also came self doubt, imposter syndrome and loneliness. The lyrics talk about fantasies and hidden feelings and private thoughts. I’ve found that channelling this inner dialogue through alter egos in my music makes them more accessible to me in real life. In these sorts of songs I write up versions of myself I wish I could be, it might be my attempt at writing myself into something new.”
