Today Jessica Winter announces her new EP Limerence, out February 10th 2023 on limited edition 12″ vinyl and all digital platforms. The announcement is accompanied by the release of new single, “Funk This Up“, the second track from the EP after the acclaimed “Choreograph”.
On “Funk This Up”, Winter shows her versatility as an artist as she pivots from the more cinematic aesthetics of “Choreograph”, and favours a more raucous, dance-heavy approach. Grounded within her unique, unmistakable style, Winter delves into everything from synth-pop to punk and 80’s glam.
“Limerence was written during a time when I was trying to understand my relationship to love and my behaviours around it.” says Jessica; “Love confuses me so much and I think this EP demonstrates that.”
Directed by Ella Margolin and shot on VHS, the “Funk This Up” music video is an extension of Winter’s artistic vision and is testimony to her ability to create art that speaks for itself.
Speaking about “Funk This Up”, Jessica said: “This song began as a conversation with myself… the verses being in the present and reacting to the choruses where I embody the more deranged temptress luring me into the depths of addiction and chaos.
The video captures two versions of the addict, the version that tries to stay balanced and together and the version that falls from the centre. We used different forms of distortion on the face and body and more extreme performance to capture the temptress.”
