Saskia’s ‘sickofmyself’ Is A Moment Of Poise
London-based, Devon-born artist Saskia has released a new single called 'sickofmyself', out now via Black Butter Records. The track follows her debut EP 'The Noise', co-written with ASTN, which drew attention for blending club-influenced production with introspective, alt-R&B-tinged pop songwriting.
Musically, 'sickofmyself' begins with plaintive, evocative piano before building into a breaks-driven sound reminiscent of late-90s liquid drum and bass. Lyrically, the song is described as deeply personal, with Saskia using it to confront and openly express suppressed emotions, explaining that feelings "will always find their way out" no matter how much one tries to bottle them up.

Explained simply
Saskia is a singer and songwriter from Devon who is now based in London. She released her debut EP, The Noise, with co-writer ASTN, combining club-influenced sounds with reflective pop and R&B.
Her new music draws on both piano-led songwriting and dance rhythms, including breaks associated with late-1990s drum and bass. The song’s subject is the difficulty of keeping emotions hidden, a theme Saskia says is rooted in her own experience.
