Blackberry

Won’t you give me a mousehole?

Starving, thirsty

What are you looking for?

Blackberry

Won’t you give me a mousehole?

Starving, thirsty

What are you looking for?

Blackberry

Won’t you give me a mousehole?

Starving, thirsty

What are you looking for?

Want to talk to?

Do you want me to talk to?

I can’t take it, might just mock you

You don’t see me, but you need me

Easy peasy, lemon squeezy

I just don’t know who to walk to

If you choose to pick me, do it

Take it, break it, you can chew it

You can take it, you can eat it

You can taste it, you can name it

Let the wind and water frame it

If it fades, don’t try to blame it

If you see it, don’t unsee it

If it’s given, then receive it

He'll meet four eyed deer

By the river willow tree

Rivers in my house

Wash the dust away from me

Barter seven reeds

Healing trees I meant, I mend

Take the second bend

And tonight remain a friend, bye

Blackberry

Won’t you give me a mousehole?

Starving, thirsty

What are you looking for?

Blackberry

Won’t you give me a mousehole?

Starving, thirsty

What are you looking for?

Blackberry

Won’t you give me a mousehole?

Starving, thirsty

What are you looking for?

By the sea the tear

Of the rented land of flies

All I ever want

Is for love apologise

Vision turning black

I can't see white berries

Never ripen there

Never never never

Euphoria

NTsKi, Yem Gel

NTsKi will release her third album Euphoria on the Ohio-based label Orange Milk. Anchored in ambient music while weaving together techno, drum'n'bass, UK garage, and hardcore, the album unfolds a new sonic landscape where diverse genres and rhythms intersect. In a space where the stillness of the forest meets the heat of the dance floor, NTsKi's signature airy voice resonates, intertwining with delicate sound design and experimental yet physical rhythms to present a soundscape that is abstract yet deeply emotional. The album also features collaborations with artists from Japan, the UK, the US, Australia, and Italy. As both a DJ and an artist who has expanded her activities across borders, NTsKi invites listeners on a journey into Euphoria.
