Track Of The Day 3/1 – LUME

'Tip Of Your Thumb'

Brighton-based newcomer LUME made quite a splash with her opening statement.

Debut track 'Magnets' emerged late last year, an atmospheric piece of dark-pop blessed with an instantly infectious chorus.

With her debut EP incoming LUME looks set to make 2018 her own, a potent and highly individual pop voice that refuses to be pigeon-holed.

New track 'Tip Of Your Thumb' airs first on Clash, and it's a powerful return, with that shuddering percussion lending itself to those tightly repeating melodies which echo prison chaingangs in the vein of O Brother Where Art Thou.

“I wanted the song to feel like it was playful, whilst relaying a deeper message” explains LUME, “it’s about the culture of typing our thoughts and fighting social media wars with smart phones, where our thumb takes over to replace our voice…”
