Rina Sawayama returns with glitzy R&B swooner "Tunnel Vision"
London's Rina Sawayama, a Best Fit fav for a while now, has shared her latest single (and her first in a while), "Tunnel Vision".
The shimmering song - a quick blitz of soft pads, lullaby synths and crisp pop vibes - channels her anxious apathy in regards to being constantly connected to the Web.
Speaking to The FADER, Sawayama explained the track's formation:
"I was in the studio and kept getting distracted by emails, Facebook messages, Instagram... just generally being a bit rude TBH. I felt this pressure to be on call 24/7 by different people, totally losing my sense of self - something that I'm sure everyone can relate to. Justin played this incredible piano riff, and the lyrics "you tell me what's wrong with you but I don't really care" just flowed out; from there the whole song took less than an hour to write and record. Everything came out so honestly and rather than turning it into a traditional song structure I decided to keep it short, like it was a rant.
"Arvida [Byström, video director] and I had met at a couple of shoots (we're both with the same model agency) and had got on really well, so when I showed her the track and she said she wanted to make a video for it I was so happy as I'm such a huge fan of her work. The video came out exactly like I imagined, like a pastel R&B glitter struggle."
