You Are Not My Only Sacrifice

Petite Noir “Come Inside”

I love the way this song feels like some kind of ritual to purge someone from your mind. Yannick Ilunga leads a call and response that spirals around a very simple beat, recognizing this person’s power over him and realizing that whatever they had, good or bad, is poisonous now. I’m extrapolating, though – there’s no particular conclusion here, and at least half the point of the song is the way the vocal and music moves in circles. It intensifies and builds, but it never leaves a tight orbit.
