Jessy Lanza 'Slapped By My Life' 12"

Slapped By My Life is a bittersweet paean to Jessy's husband. Musically it leans into a more dancefloor-oriented sound, playful and floaty at a speedy 158bpm. The ‘Existential Edit’ version pushes even further onto the dancefloor, accentuating the sweeping, lush synth textures with just accents and phrases that give it a propulsive bounce.Lyrically, it flits between open love, gratefulness and uncertainty, and is the most simple, direct and personal thing Jessy has ever written, made with co-production from Pearson sound.
