Austra: Lose It

Austra’s music did something to me years ago—this electronic precision combined with a kind of emotional distance, like observing your own disintegration from the outside. The arrangements are so controlled, so careful, but the songs themselves are about things falling apart. ’Lose It’ sits right in that tension. I’m not entirely sure where the production ends and the songwriting begins, but the effect is clear: this work doesn’t let go.
