SMOOTH, SULTRY AND SEDUCTIVE: WILLOH REFUSES TO HOLD BACK IN “NOSTRINGS”
Electronic tracks don’t always have to be fast or loud, and willoh proves that in “NOSTRINGS,” a contemplative piece that is hypnotic and alluring.
Everything from the intricate production to her breathy, sultry vocals creates a song filled with sass. Working with only a few select instruments, this track exudes an uninhibited charm that underscores the importance of simplicity.
It’s incredibly intimate – listeners are almost treated as “Daisy.” It feels like willoh is whispering in your ear, telling you a secretive story. Daisy, in this case, is a personified exploration of all the self-destructive behaviors that willoh deals with. She feels like she’s in a toxic cycle with herself, and that plays heavily into the themes of the song: “Do you hate me, Daisy? Do I drive you crazy?”
The beat is breathing, moving along a steady pace that’s complemented by the woozy basslines. The drum fills, impactful yet straightforward, carry on this sensual style. Her sly, sarcastic delivery is perfect for this type of experimental song.
“NOSTRINGS” by willoh is seductive, giving listeners a taste of her many talents and raw vocals. She does not need frills; instead, she leans into the simpler side of things to get across her vision.
