The evocative electronic pop duo Clay and Kelsy have just dropped “Memories of Me” the fourth track from their highly anticipated debut EP I Am. This latest release delves into the tumultuous and often painful process of transformation.
Clay and Kelsy’s musical partnership, which blossomed in 2021 despite 13 years together as life partners, is built on a shared passion for creating emotionally driven electropop. Their synergy is evident in their music.
“Memories of Me” stands out with its brooding synths, moody percussion, and lyrics that convey a deep sense of remorse. The track paints a vivid picture of a soul grappling with the fear of losing its identity amidst the wreckage of a shattered relationship. The duo describes the song as an “endless loop, a funeral march of one’s self” where the fragile memories of what once was teeter on the edge of oblivion.
The meticulous production, crafted by the duo themselves, intertwines organic and synthetic elements to create a dynamic, emotionally charged soundscape. The track’s depth is further enhanced by the mastering of GRAMMY-award winner John Greenham.
As founders of CKI, a queer woman-owned software instrument company in partnership with industry giant Native Instruments, Clay and Kelsy are not only breaking boundaries in music but also in the broader world of music technology. Their innovative approach and commitment to female-forward progressiveness are making them unstoppable forces in the industry.
With “Memories of Me,” Clay and Kelsy continue to push the envelope, offering listeners a deeply personal and sonically rich experience that is as thought-provoking as it is haunting.
