about
Hockeysmith return with a politically-motivated single, released on EEL.
The track is the first to be released from a series of sessions with Ed Banger producer Borussia, recorded in Paris during lockdown. More music will follow from these sessions in due course.
Hockeysmith wrote the song during a time of isolation and reflects on the craving for human touch and connection, learning from past mistakes, fantasy and thoughts of being a woman in a post-Covid world.
Ahhh oooo
I'm for you
Can you come and get me?
Ooo this is my
Ooooo this is my looking my, locking my
This is my, this is my, this is my
Sweated in this new body
There is no antibody
I'm feeling disembodied
I'm sick from everybody
Oh this is my
Oh locked in this body forever?
Oh wanna be a woman never
Never
Don't build my heart up like that
It's all built on lies like that
Rebuild my heart
Ready for you when I get back up
Surprise, I feel like Britt Ekland
Sanitise, I'm ready for you
Realise, happier like a woman
Lionize, I'm naked for you
mmmm na na na
You feel so real, surreal, look forward, the force of you, the cost, cos I've let you under my skin
I am for you, I'm part you
Whatever I
I am drifting
Shaking up now
In a past life
Feeling apt now
Really
My body's healing in your arms around
Sweating for you to cover
Anchoring this love
I can't believe
Look me in the eyes
I am for you, I'm part you
Whatever I (Come)
I am drifting (tonight)
Shaking up now
In a past life
Pill up now
Taking it easy, laugh out proud
Nothing is faking, it's that loud
This is the greatest longing unfurled
This is my body revealing it all..
It's real without me

Hockeysmith is a solo project by Annie, who resides in Cornwall. Working with the likes of 4AD and Nis Bysted (Escho), she
has returned to her kindred musical soulmate Andy Smith (Lxury) to complete her debut mini-album, “I Am For Life”. Her catalogue of experimental electronica is impressive, creating everything from Cornish acid under the synonym “Annie eel” to empowering pop anthems....more
