Mothica’s beautifully haunting voice tends to stop us in our tracks. We can’t help but drop everything else we’re doing just to marvel at that husky voice. At times, it feels like it’s about to break under the weight of a world of emotion and pain. Today, the Brooklyn based musician released her newest single, Lovetalk, a cinematic writhing anti-love love song from her forthcoming third solo EP. It’s a dark and weighty pop song, whose embers simmer and burn with heartbreaking beauty. Lovetalk was inspired by a conversation Mothica had with her friend about Gary Chapman’s “The Five Love Language,” and the interaction sparked the lyrical idea of ‘love’ being a language itself. It’s obvious that love is a much misconstrued method of communication. It’s also the most potent form of both connection and disconnection between people. In this case, Mothica has formed a state of rapport and harmony with us, her fans, by cutting deep into our hearts with her tense and dramatic ballad. Lovetalk was co-produced with SYBLYNG and Nydge, as well as mixed by Moon Bounce. It can also be streamed via Spotify, here.
