Alt-pop voyager Kaeto has shared new single ‘U R Mine’.
The songwriter crashed into our lives with recent single ‘HERO’, matching devastating lyrical word play with those pristine melodies. Kaeto is building towards a broader project, with her debut mixtape ‘INTRO’ set to land later this year.
Out on September 20th, the eight-track mixtape will feature ‘HERO’, alongside her latest single.
Out now, ‘U R Mine’ offers something precocious and fascinating. Sculpted alongside Mathias Wang (aka Junkmail), the song is a hymn to body positivity, and learning to see your form in its true, beautiful light.
Kaeto comments…
“This song was made by Mathi and myself and is one of my favourite songs we have written. He is so talented and I am really excited to share the rest of our project later this year. The song itself is a love letter to the body and its right to exist without the burden of what it ought to look like to everyone else. I’ve spent so much time punishing and shaming my body so it was really freeing to write about my gratitude for my body and how all of its parts together keep me moving and experiencing my life. In essence, it’s about reclaiming your body, stealing it away from the shapes it’s told to form and just accepting it for what it is: a wonderful and beautiful home deserving of being looked after.”
“My best friend Maddy features in the video. She is a truly incredible and special person. I wanted to capture the feeling that you have as a child before the onset of body image burdens when you’re able to just use your body as a vessel. The rest of the team was made up of my other incredibly talented friends: Maisy Banks, Reuben Davies Lindley, Dan Breuer, Sal Redpath and Joe Gollifer. It was such a hilarious day.”
