Have You Heard? TĀLĀ - Talk 2 Me

Sharing her moniker with both rhythmic percussion sequences, and a popular bakeware brand, it’s perhaps fitting that in her latest track, TĀLĀ cooks up a piping hot storm of colliding snares, glitching vocal lines, and freshly iced choruses. According to the eclectic musician and producer, she’s been re-examining what she wants to achieve next ahead of releasing a new EP ‘Zāl,’ and if first taster ‘Talk 2 Me’ is any indication of what TĀLĀ has in mind, expect something more immediate; reigning in her ear for pick n’ mix influences, and channelling it all into a finely-tuned pop banger machine.

‘Talk 2 Me’ shows TĀLĀ letting loose, in many ways. Aside studio chuckles, ringing telephones, and mangled expletives pepper her verses, the actual hook itself landing in a fast-swerving sea of half-android vocal manipulation. At the end of it all, this serves as the clearest indication yet that this London musician is aiming skyward.
