Over It

Freyja Elsy embodied the sentiment that hell hath no fury like a woman scorned in her single, Over It

Posted on 23 November 2023

Freyja Elsy’s latest single, Over It, from her upcoming EP, Modern Artifice, is a mesmerising blend of trip-hop, dark pop, and innovative electronica that resonates with the chillingly arcane Southern Gothic air of Chelsea Wolfe.

The single, which premiered on BBC Radio Wales on Adam Walton’s Introducing show, has been aptly compared to the likes of Massive Attack and Portishead, with a nod to the acid house genre in its production. The multi-layered auditory journey reflects the despondency of being cast into the harsh realities of adulthood and forced to contend with the seemingly arbitrary monotony which stretches for decades before those coming of age. Elsy’s voice, both haunting and commanding, unravels this narrative against a backdrop of spiky dream pop and leftfield electronica, creating a sound that is as visionary as it is haunting as it oozes the divinity of female power.

Elsy, who has had a remarkable year, opening for acts like Death & Vanilla and Welsh artists Eädyth, Ani Glass, and Small Miracles, never fails to showcase her ability to create a cohesive and clear vision in her music. Her previous singles, Lungs, Requiem, and Golden Hour, have already garnered international attention and BBC recognition, setting a high bar for her upcoming EP.

Over It hit the airwaves on November 17; stream it on SoundCloud.

Moving on from relationship dysfunction: Edith is totally ‘Over It’ on breakup pop anthem

Posted on 7 February 2021

She fell for their charms but Edith is now ‘Over It‘, as she saw past their shallowness and is now onto bigger and better things.

Edith Farcas aka Edith, is a fast-rising Romanian-born, London, England-based indie synth-pop singer-songwriter, who sings with a cutting edge and young abandon, that energizes the room and makes music that reflects growing up in the big city, while dealing with growing pains of how long love can be so complicated.

This is the story of young love and how you had some fun experiences with them but ultimately. you saw through their games and have decided to put the phone down for good. They showed you what was more important to them and it wasn’t you that seemed to be a priority.

She sings with such young grace and growing elegance despite this sad story. Her vocals sweep into your mind and you can’t help but celebrate with her, as he projects an independent woman, who now knows what she wants out of a relationship.

‘Over It‘ from London’s fresh indie-pop singer Edith, is a message that she has realized that she needed to end things quickly, before she was left with more disappointment to handle.

When your heart knows, your heart just knows. Being with someone that isn’t fully invested in you is a heartbreaking experience but the sooner you move on, the better it will be for you long-term. If you are going through the motions, you know that you are definitely over it and fresh experiences await you.

Midnight Drive’s ‘Over It’ is the electro anthem of 2020

Posted on 8 August 2020

Midnight Drive are a new electronic act in the game and they return with their 3rd single called ‘Over It‘.

Nothing is going to save this relationship sadly. The love has gone and you are over it. You had amazing memories but the time to turn the page and close the book is now. You need to move on and be free again, finding happiness is this destructive world is key to your mental health.

There is lots of indie electro forces here and the beat is so jarring and thuds into your ears. I love the beat and the raspy vocals make this a winner. This a breakout anthem that is a pleasure to listen to.

Midnight Drive’s ‘Over It‘ shines through the door like a bright light wanting to force itself in. There is a style and a panache here that is unlike most bands. This is an outfit that are making a name for themselves.
