This one is personal. UK-born Luxembourg-based Artist/Producer Tobisonics delivers a 2 minute 57 second indie-pop trauma-purge, ‘The Voice Inside Your Head Wants You Dead’.
Tobi takes on the persona of the toxic inner voice, a wretched creature compelled to destroy the very thing it needs to survive. Tobi does so with a sense of authority made possible only by personal experience, and cannot help but allude to his own lifelong battle with chronic depression/anxiety and PTSD.
“I was at a low point with the music. I asked myself, If I could only make one more song, what would it be? I sat down with the guitar and sang, ‘I am the voice inside your head and yes, I want you dead’.”
Working alone in his home studio, Tobi crafts a dynamic and ever-evolving soundscape of ear-catching drums and percussion, cryptic synths and layered guitars. His first project to be presented in Dolby Atmos, Tobi undertook every aspect of production, mix, and master.
Nominated for Radio WigWam Best Electro Act 2021. Tobi’s music has been played by DJ Tobi Lynn of Amazing Radio US, and featured in Fresh on the Net’s Fresh Faves [Batch 390]. His music has also attracted the attention of Abbie McCarthy [BBC Radio 1] “Enjoyed listening to this, ace production 👏🏼” and Jaguar [BBC Intro Dance Radio 1/Mix mag] “This is everything. I want more.”
‘The Voice Inside Your Head Wants You Dead’ is out on all platforms on Tuesday 24th September.
I am the voice inside your head
And yes, I want you dead
I mix lies with the truth
Advocate to attack you
I bind you so no one can find you
I hide the light inside you
I am the voice inside your head
And yes, I want you dead
I contrive you to infantize you
Idolize you as I deny you
I need you wretched to reflect me
I need you to never reject me
I can not stand in the light in you
I can not stand without you
I am the voice inside your head
And yes, I want you dead
