Space Boy (Matthew Blaire): “Let Me Go”

โ€œLet Me Goโ€ molds the kooky instrumentals of underground indie onto the style of bedroom hip-hop.

Space Boyโ€™s start-and-stop delivery finds a connection to his minimalist daydream samples. For example, lines such as, โ€œLadi dadi do yah I been in love before, now Iโ€™m always sayinโ€™ no because I know whatโ€™s up,โ€ are matched with sporadic dropkicks and descending string melodies. Sometimes, when we feel like doing nothing, a song like this is the only thing that can put us โ€œin the mood.โ€ It embodies the act of laying down in bed, sleeping in, and doing nothing. But within this ennui, one canโ€™t help but feel the repression of deep emotions.

As an artist under Beige Records, a label that covers musicians that are just beginning their career, not a lot needs to be said about Space Boy. But that doesnโ€™t mean weโ€™re not excited.
