Lauren Dejey - 'Till I Wilt'
South London’s rising alt-pop artist Lauren Dejey returns with radiant new single ‘Till I Wilt’.
Hitting hard with progressive pop sounds and percussion - the track hits like an explosion of energy. Cutting deep as it explores the listeners eardrums to create an infectiously creative force of nature. Lauren shares what her new single means to her: “Giving every drop of energy away to someone. You’d do anything to help them grow and thrive while your colours slowly fade. Like a gentle flower wilting on someone's shelf, only needing a touch of love and care to come back to full bloom.”
Heavy in static noise and imaginative lyricism, Dejey delivers yet another immersive song that is both sonically gentle yet sharp in all its distorted production. Frequently inspired by the crossovers in nature and the human experience, ‘Till I Wilt’ articulates the shared characteristics of humans and mother nature, as we too run the risk of wilting away when left without the care of others. The juxtaposition of the delicacy in Lauren’s lyricism and vocals, with the staticy, harsh production makes her work one of a kind and blissfully unexpected.
“You’ll never be alone again”, sings Mancunian’s finest wordsmith Antony Szmierek, and it’s hard to argue with him after a joyous night filled with dancing in a sold-out Kentish Town Forum to his garage beats and spoken-word. Nobody felt alone that night, that’s for sure.
