Language is often seen as a barrier to communication. If I can’t understand your words, how can I understand you? But music transcends language, and even though I can’t understand the lyrics on this collaborative song with CORECASS (aka Elinor Lüdde) and CHVE, I can feel the meaning of the soundwaves. They carry pain, rage, weakness, despair, guilt. Watching the video for “Glijd Mee” (feat CHVE), I thought I was looking at two sides of the same woman, watching her face herself, fight herself. (I realized after watching it they’re sisters, hence the similarities) They looked like the same person to me, traveling together until they decided to part, to destroy each other. CHVE narrates their journey away from themselves, the story that splits us from our shadow, the anxiety that results from leaving a part of ourselves behind. CORECASS builds layer upon layer of sound, pulling gorgeous, pensive melodies over a constant, despondent hum, reaching a crashing crescendo of percussion, frantic melody, and frenetic screaming. “Glijd Mee” (feat CHVE) is off CORECASS’s new record Tar that’s out now via Moment Of Collapse Records and Sacer Rec. — get it here. Right now, experience the impact of “Glijd Mee” (feat CHVE)…
„Glijd Mee“ offers an even deeper glance into the discarded feelings of the individual being and its crooked path in life.
