TMBOY

TMBOY is Sarah Aument and Will Shore. Together they create shadowy electronic avant-pop. It has an unusually organic feel for music that leans heavily into house and techno. Their double-single Focus / Seed – out everywhere Jun 29, 2018.

About the song, Aument shares:   ‘Seed’ is in part a love song but it’s also about becoming totally consumed by something that isn’t real. Most of my initial romantic experiences as a queer person were ones where I made up that the other person was gay and had romantic feelings for me. I wanted so badly for my feelings to be reciprocated that I started see signs of their “attraction” for me where there was none. But the song is also about romantic experiences I’ve had later in life, where I’ve wanted people simply because initial lust and attraction feels so good. I was using it as a distraction, an escape from other things in my life. I think I wrote this song when I was finally starting to realize what I was doing and how it was hurting myself and others.
