Sasha March casts a spell with her latest single “Can I Call.” This song kind of snuck up on me. It’s subtle, but it has a way of getting under your skin with its languid electro beat and Sasha’s beautiful voice. The minimalist treatment gives the song space to breathe, ensuring you feel the full impact of her words.
“’Can I Call’ could be a dark place or a kind of comfort depending where you’re at,” Sasha admitted. “It could be a love song, or a place where you fight yourself as the super hero and the villain. But there’s always hope that there’ll be someone or something to sober you and ground you again before the next round.”
Sasha’s had the song in her back pocket for a while, but collaborating with Tristan Jvmes has transformed it into the special single you hear today.
“I left it aside for ages and then eventually took it to Sydney producer Tristan Jvmes last year,” Sasha added. “Tristan built up a bunch of ideas sonically and each time his production developed, I’d do another vocal take. This was a fun process which went on for a few months until we found together what the song meant and eventually I did a vocal take I was happy with. We lost count of the different versions, but landed on the final loved one and sent it off to be mastered by Harvey O’Sullivan at Studio 301 in Sydney.”
Sometimes music is worth the wait. This song certainly is.
