This Hunt by VANDANA
Inspired by the fleeting bloom of the night-blooming cereus, This Hunt explores the intoxicating collision of beauty, desire, and brutality. A soundtrack for when the world’s unraveling and you feel something electric, almost feral rise up in response. For night drives, schemes hatched on fire escapes, 3 AM bodega runs, and meeting strangers between floors. You'd love this if you're a fan of Fever Ray, Nine Inch Nails, Gazelle Twin, Massive Attack, Portishead and Tricky.

Lyrics
This cruel hunt
You never ask for it
This ego's creation
This hunt, this hunt
You can never have enough of it
It's careless arrogance
This insatiable hunt
You can see it coming
This Faustian bargain
Dispensing blossoms of
Red across your arched back
Is it pride?
Is it pride?
I'm old enough to know this game
Keep my heart, keep it cool
Keep it cool by my side
The moment your ignorant eyes
Wake upon this world
Is it a choice?
Is it a choice?
This insatiable hunt
You can never have enough of it
It bends you backwards
This slutty hunt
With its trivial joys
Is nothing but tall pride
This, this hunt
It's no testament to your power
It beats you black and blue

VANDANA is an artist who thrives in contradiction, shapeshifting
between the seductive and the sinister, the intimate and the
maximalist, she has built a world where beauty and menace intertwine. Critics at Brooklyn Vegan and The Line of Best Fit have called her a
“mystic, intelligent anti-Venus,” placing her within a lineage of
art-pop disruptors - Björk, Fever Ray, PJ HArvey, Arca, FKA twigs.
