Kaho Matsui ft Uboa - Unconditional (Patreon)

Recently, Kaho Matsui asked me to collab on a song with her, and it turned out great. It is on her upcoming release "Life Lover", which is a stunning work blending twinkly emo, noise, ambient, electronica and glitch. She did most of the song and composed it structurally, and I added vocal harmonies, screams and sent a lot of samples of noise for the crescendo.

For those who don't know her work, I strongly recommend "computer and recording works for girls" with more eaze, one of my favorite records I've heard recently. I'd also recommend the upcoming LP which is out Friday as a great introduction to her work alone too.

She has graciously allowed the song to be shared in advance here. She even allowed downloads... but I want you to buy the record off her.

According to Kaho, the song is about codependent relationships.

Lyrics (by Kaho Matsui):

the best i can do is unconditional

i swallowed my pride, is it bearable?

it's an uglier pale than you'd like

better ugly than dead

the best thing i do is unsolicited

wipe off the tears to reveal it's empty

soon i'll be empty too

soon i'll need something too

you won't do it to me

you won't do it to me

you won't do it to me

you won't do it to me
