Ruth Radelet - Crimes

“Crimes” is the new single by the former singer of the band Chromatics Ruth Radelet. The bright, glittering synth-pop track – produced in collaboration with Filip Nikolic of Poolside – explores questions about how far you want to go to be successful. She explains:

“‘Crimes’ is about the pursuit of success at the expense of one’s integrity, and the exploitation of others in order to get ahead. It’s about the price we pay for our choices, and whether or not it’s worth it. The question, ‘Is it easy to start over?’ can be interpreted in two ways – it’s meant to ask how it feels to continually reinvent yourself until you lose sight of who you are. It also asks how hard it would be to walk away from it all.”
