Snake Orange Cake

Uergh. We’ve got an incredibly talented artist on our hands. Not only is the talent here in spades, but so is the capacity. “Stitch” was produced, recorded, and mixed by the Berlin-based artist Snake Orange Cake—the evocative new project from Julia Carlsson. The instrumentals tickle the back of my brain in ways I didn’t know were possible, and the lyrics? Just exceptional. Since the artist herself is clearly an exciting wordsmith, I’ll leave you in her capable hands as you listen along: I saw itAnd then it happenedWe shake our hands goodbyeBut then you tap the heart on my armCovering my earsMy mouthMy eyesI have no choice but to lean backLean back into youInto rain + heavy cloudsInto the off + seasonInto the unlived livesSkin and bonesI was naive and I was rightYour shoulders were never meant to be this strongLet it goLet them fallYour shoulders were never meant to be this strongFake forestProjections in the skyBlack flags on the beachA stitch in your backFake forestProjections in the skyBlack flags on the beachA stitch in your backFake forestProjections in the skyBlack flags on the beachA stitch in your backFake forestProjections in the skyBlack flags on the beachA stitch in your back
