Grammy-nominated Marie Davidson's first release for Soulwax's DEEWEE imprint, 'Y.A.A.M.', is produced by longtime collaborator Pierre Guerineau and is a cathartic response to power dynamics within the music industry. The rawness of the original is complemented by a new version by Soulwax, who previously reworked Davidson's acclaimed 'Work it' anthem.'I've read somewhere that to be an artist, you have to be willing to sometimes go where it is the most uncomfortable. About a year ago, after receiving a very condescending email related to the business side of music making, I took the opportunity to write down how I felt about the words and the overall tone of arrogance of what I had just been sent.Quickly, I found myself having a bit too much fun, words flowing from my fingers to the screen, as I had never seen happen before. All sentences were brief and rhymed effortlessly. Soon enough, I realized that what I was writing was a song.Music was made as a pure act of catharsis, an exercise in telling things as they are in the most concise way. Y.A.A.M. is a testimony of living with passion and authenticity in a world that thrives on branding and transactional relationships. I found great pleasure in writing this track. Now that it's time to share the work, I simply hope that it can inspire others to be who they are irreverently. Don't mind the bad words, it comes straight from the heart. Love, Marie' - Marie Davidson Tracklisting:A1. Y.A.A.M. (Original)A2. Y.A.A.M. (Acapella) BA. Y.A.A.M. (Soulwax Version)
