FADER PREMIERE
Was it, was it, was it, was it, was it, was it you? sings Tel Aviv singer/producer Adi Ulmansky with the sweetest hint of lisp on the hook of the trip-hop tinged single "Was It You?", a duet with rapper/producer Borgore. How could you let go when I was hypnotized? wonders Ulmansky. I cling to what was good / Manipulate the history / Forgetting all the bad / Forgetting all the misery, counters Borgore. It's a familiar story of the hazy vision that follows a break-up yet it's delivered with urgency and honesty, and there's some sweet graphic treatments in this video that get the fractured feeling across to a tee. Apparently Ulmansky's recently been in the studio with London producer and Danny Brown collaborator Darq E Freaker, which should be interesting, plus if you're lucky enough to be at Melt festival in Germany this weekend, you can catch her performing there.
