Hull duo Cutty kick the week off with a big banger called ‘Ain’t Talkin’ and it’s pretty epic!
This is a punchy bop that makes us think about the moments in life when we feel as though we should say something, when in fact nothing needs to be said. Elaborating further, the band says:
“‘Ain’t Talkin’ is a song about defying the need to speak when what’s being said around you doesn’t matter. The song explores deep self-reflection, addressing ideas like detachment, normality, and silence, sometimes feeling as though people are walking one way and you another. ‘Ain’t Talkin’ expresses a journey of discovery of connection with others. The song also expresses defiance against falsehood and the notion of taking the time to piece together our own truths.”
The song’s production blends elements of lo-fi pop with trip hop, indie, and electronica in ways that we haven’t quite experienced before, which is really quite refreshing. Cutty are building some good momentum of late, with praise from outlets like DIY Mag and electronic sound of joy. An upcoming EP from the band is due soon.
