never mine by chloe spider: Review
Nottingham-based indie bedroom pop artist chloe spider’s latest single ‘never mine’ is a brilliantly crafted evocative piece of music that blends ambient electronic textures with haunting vocals.
The structure of the song is unique, with two alternate portions combined to produce a hypnotic and captivating soundscape that draws the listener in. The layered vocals and spacey pads give the track an ethereal aspect, giving it a dreamlike quality, while the lyrics deal with the terrible reality of lost relationships. chloe’s vocals are a highlight of the song, with her expressive delivery wonderfully expressing the feelings of sadness and disappointment that inspired the song. The lyrics are both introspective and accessible, addressing the universal desire to find connection and love in a society that can feel cold and detached at times. Despite the melancholic subject matter, the song’s repetitive pattern and lack of resolution convey a feeling of hopefulness and perseverance. This mirrors the lyrics’ pragmatic meaning and lends another degree of depth to the piece.
‘never mine’ is a beautiful piece of music that highlights chloe spider’s abilities as a singer, songwriter, and producer. The combination of the song’s stunning backdrop and heart-breaking lyrics creates a truly affecting listening experience that will resonate with anybody who has ever felt the heartache of a failed romance. It’s a terrific record that sets a high standard for this artist’s future releases.
