Bridgitte Mathiasen casts a spell with emotionally charged single “Spellin”

Bridgitte Mathiasen

In her achingly expressive new single, “Spellin,” Bridgitte Mathiasen is a reminder that words are spells that we cast as we breathe. Grounded in classical textures but driven by an emotional rawness, “Spellin” explores the alchemy of spoken language. Mathiasen doesn’t so much sing as incant. Every note here does work, like a well-chosen world intended to stir the soul. There’s no one burning down the production. The power is in its restraint and its depth.

The composition tends toward the classical, but never feels like a relic. It’s timeless, and grounded in an understanding of how melody and emotion intertwine. You’re swept into a contemplative realm where mind and sense intertwine. The string arrangements reverberate with grace, the piano lines drift like recollections, and Bridgitte’s delivery falls like a whisper with gravity. The tune relays a deeper reality that our words reverberate. Mathiasen conveys the notion that we can’t take back what we’ve said, but we can add to the narrative, build upon it, heal its wounds, or drive it deeper. There’s an intimacy in the way she articulates this, it’s a quiet invitation to consider the power of our voices.

“Spellin” is a moment of suspended time, a song that demands to be played again, each listen revealing the multiple layers of its complex beauty. With “Spellin,” Bridgitte Mathiasen has brought us something profoundly contemplative, a classical piece that is eerily contemporary in concern. In a planet that frequently wallows in noise, this track is a whisper that slices through and leaves a lingering echo. If you harbor the notion that music should move you, make you think, and maybe even heal you, “Spellin” just might put the spell on you that you didn’t know you needed.

Seun Kuti & Egypt 80 confront political leadership on latest release “Na Dem”

Seun Kuti & Egypt 80

Seun Kuti & Egypt 80‘s latest release, “Na Dem” ft. Tom Morello, is about politicians who don’t keep their promise to make the nation better as the song goes. Instead of relegating that subject to the background the song brings that subject to the forefront of its message.

The result is music for music’s sake and for the culture and political-art crowd where sound and subject are one. It is about the negative consequences of a political leadership that does not fulfil its responsibilities. So “Na Dem” is very social in purpose but it does not divorce the message from the music itself.

The collaboration with Tom Morello adds another flavour to the release, but the heart of the track is Seun Kuti & Egypt 80. “Na Dem” is built on a simple idea, that music can push back against the realities people face and it’s able to make difficult issues a public matter. It’s a release of music that is not just another one, with a political flavour especially for those who look for music that links culture with social commentary.
