Last year London-based artist Ayelle dropped her Machine EP, a five song voyage though nocturnal pop and r&b. Now linking up with the Berlin production duo Blyne, she hits us with a dark, new single entitled ‘Issues’. Almost minimal to a degree, the slow burning, trap-infused cut deals with the psychological abuse of a foul relationship.

In a press statement regarding ‘Issues’, Ayelle wrote:

“Abusive personalities can make you feel as if you can’t live without them, their love or their approval. Ultimately, they wish to control you, and will use whatever means available to them to do so.
Even after you think you’ve gotten away from them, the abuse continues, and ‘issues’ is about the aftermath that follows.”
