about

"Rambling Mind" is a beautifully glitchy, cinematic breakbeat that drifts into focus with emotive piano and the kind of swirling ambient sound design you'd expect from Tipper. Sawicki's silky, yearning vocals add an evocative, space-age lounge air to the otherwise Jon Hopkins meets Hybrid vibes of the instrumental. When she starts to hurt at that hook, it hurts so good for all of us. This is catharsis. This is the glimmer of light in the darkness. This is Elba.

lyrics

I find I focus on things that don’t last
I try I try to grasp hold of that past
Holding a burden that I can’t control
She worn out and weary my wandering soul

Shake up the dust and beneath you will find
Chaos that’s left from a rambling mind

Sway me like the wind moves the trees
Close my eyes and I’ll bend with ease
Speak to me without your words
I’ll be your for now if you leave when it starts to hurt

Starts to hurt, starts to hurt
Starts to hurt, starts to hurt
Starts to hurt, starts to hurt
Starts to hurt

Shake up the dust and beneath you will find
Chaos that’s left from a rambling mind

Sway me like the wind moves the trees
Close my eyes and I’ll bend with ease
Speak to me without your words
I’ll be your for now if you leave when it starts to hurt

Starts to hurt, starts to hurt
Starts to hurt, starts to hurt

Move through me, touch my limbs, feel the warmth, embrace the end
Move through me, touch my limbs, feel the warmth, embrace the end
Move through me, touch my limbs, feel the warmth, embrace the end
Move through me, touch my limbs, feel the warmth, embrace the end
Move through me, touch my limbs, feel the warmth, embrace the end
Move through me, touch my limbs, feel the warmth, embrace the end
Move through me, touch my limbs, feel the warmth, embrace the end
Move through me, touch my limbs, feel the warmth, embrace the end

Her vision imbues Bierman's technically sophisticated techno-tinged breakbeats with an elevated pop sensibility. ... more
