LALKA - Shut Up

Words by Sean Tayler

Brisbane electro pop producer and vocalist LALKA returns to the game with her psychedelic single ‘Shut Up’.

‘Shut Up’ dances in its own grunge, marvelling with a foot in dark J-Pop and a foot in trip-hop. LALKA has delivered stunning production in such a beautifully sinister track that is hard to describe. Louder and heavier than Massive Attack, ‘Shut Up’ sounds as though King IV and FKA Twigs have had a love child; a full-force brute of ambitious feminine rage.

‘Shut Up’ blows me away. It’s beautiful, dark and cryptic; the sort of music I wish I had discovered sooner. Brisbane better watch out because someone has wronged LALKA and now she’s out for blood.
