Wolf
London based youngster Marika Hackman is back with another release from her upcoming EP, Sugar Blind. Produced by Charlie Andrew (Alt-J), this EP marks a significant stride forward in Marika’s songwriting. Due for release December 9th on Dirty Hit Records, “Wolf,” has us swooning; echanted with her brooding tone.
The ominous repeating vocal samples set the tone for this wickedly dark tune. With subtle guitar pics, eerie synths and downlplayed percussion we find ourselves getting beautifully lost in this gem. Aptly named, this haunting journey comes to fruition through Marika’s non-traditional vocals, which illustrate quite a cautionary tale.
If you’re in the the UK next month. Make sure to catch her live at one of these five shows. And, once you’re done picking up tickets, pre-order Sugar Blind and receive an instant download of her track, “Cinnamon.”
