Låpsley has shared her new single ’32 Floors’.
The new single is a potent reintroduction, her first blast of fresh material since acclaimed 2020 album ‘Through Water’.
We’ve come a long way from her XL enabled debut album, with the alt-pop voice affording herself time to truly grow into her skin. As far as side hustles go, Låpsley has one of the more eye-opening – she helps manage the playroom at queer BDSM-leaning club night Crossbreed.
’32 Floors’ picks up on this sense of honesty, and it finds Låpsley giving into a kind of emotional submission. Toying with ideas of control, ’32 Floors’ is a bundle of sounds, all distilled down into one alt-pop brew – while lyrically, she discusses fear, and that feeling of letting go.
For Låpsley, the new single represents “the thrill and danger of complete submission. I’m someone that craves “giving up my struggle for control” as an antidote to the intense individuality of my personality.”
She adds: “The metaphorical idea of falling off the side of a 32 Floor building and ‘landing in their arms’ is the idea of trust, tinged in an unhealthy lack of fear.”
