Why do we like this?

Going in to 2017, I had a strong idea of what I wanted to hear out of music and what I didn't want to hear anymore. Replicated melodies and template driven dance and pop tracks quit cutting it after a while. Hearing artists take risks and do something outside of the common mold that folks seem to love and follow is much more exciting for me.

Los Angeles-based singer-songwriter vōx's new single "I Was Born" flawlessly executes a minimalistic, avant-garde approach to pop music, using her voice as the only necessary instrument to tell a story driven from the soul. With some help from a vocoder and a microphone, lyrics like "I think I died this week; the earth slipped away," stop you in your tracks, and lock your attention in from beginning to end.

If you enjoy this track, stay updated with vōx on SoundCloud or Twitter.
