MAVICA – Are You Back
Spanish singer-producer MAVICA released a beautifully cinematic video for her new mesmerizing indie-electronic single “are you back?”
“I wrote this song after ending a friendship. I was stretching myself, hesitant to let go and pushing the relationship to its limits until it broke. There were many moments of doubt and insecurity leading up to and after the breakup. The fear of loss and abandonment you feel is just as present in a non-romantic breakup. Eventually I accepted fate and learned how to deal with the frustration of seeing the relationship go downhill without being able to save it.”
