Cosette’s “Eyes” is a Glimpse of Pure Artistic Vision
If you’re reading this, there’s a fair chance that you’re looking to rejuvenate your fall playlist, and you’re not alone. It’s time for a hard truth: your roommates are sick of hearing you play “lacy” on repeat. Sure, those new PinkPantheress and Cleo Sol tracks are bangers, but they aren’t doing much to expand your horizons. Maybe you put a UTOPIA 'deep-cut' on there like “PARASAIL” in anticipation of the five dollar nosebleed seats you bought. I won’t judge, but we can both agree that your recent rotation has gotten a little bit stale.
Enter Cosette, the singer-songwriter and producer who returns to listeners with her new track “Eyes,” her second single this year. Preceded by the springtime release “STOMP,” “Eyes” sees Cosette synthesizing delicate R&B harmonies with futuristic glitchcore stylistics, pushing pop’s sonic landscape forward with every mind-warping beat switch. Elegant string sections and chest-shaking bass signals serve as the perfect foundation for Cosette to flex her vocal strength and affinity for clever songwriting. Though Cosette may self-describe herself as “the saddest girl in all the land,” I honestly can’t relate. This song is everything that I’ve been waiting for from the Nashville multi-hyphenate since “alone” colonized my weekly rotation almost two years ago.
With more releases hopefully laying just beyond the horizon, Cosette is an artist who is deserving of both your eyes and ears as winter slowly descends upon us. If you don’t want to get caught lacking with mid on your playlist, you’d be wise to check out Cosette sooner rather than later. With both a Brakence and a SoundCloud co-sign under her belt, your time to become an early fan is quickly running out.
