The Los Angeles-based singer, songwriter, and producer spill tab, returns with her first solo song of the year, “Window.” The release is an energetic alternative pop banger that showcases spill tab’s ever-evolving influences and fearless innovation. Part of her forthcoming EP, the track highlights her songwriting and production abilities through its melodic vocal layers, plucking bass, and gloomy soundscapes.

spill tab produced “Window” alongside Wyatt Bernard and Austin Corona. The production, vocal distortion, and mixing blend seamlessly to create an infectiously catchy chorus and indie rock feel throughout the track. The dynamic and textured percussion paired with the raw emotion of the vocal layers reflects a level of intention and emotion. 

The production of the track creates a particularly unique blend of ideas and a profound listening experience. spill tab describes the process of making the track, “I just had a good time crafting something that felt dynamic and ever-changing. I love the idea of someone scrolling through the song and wondering how these different vibes exist together.” 

spill tab delves into themes of longing for sentiments of the past, but also an acceptance in moving forward beyond those feelings. “Window” effectively shares a glimpse into the duality of love and the transience of emotions that can make up this intricate process in the following lines, “I’ll push away like I did when I had you clear / It’s the crux of the nature to crave what is not near” 

Staring out of a window can elicit feelings of nostalgia and a longing for the past. It can also elicit acceptance and optimism toward a future that is now within sight. spill tab details the nuance in the mundane and material world to reveal intricate stories and emotions. Perhaps “Window” is a glimpse into the future, a reflection of the past, or maybe a little bit of both. Ultimately, it reveals the powerful complexity and transience of love and loss through the lens of the immensely talented and ever-evolving superstar that is spill tab! The artist is currently on tour with Sabrina Carpenter and her forthcoming EP is set to release in May of this year.
