SAYMYNAME and Nitti Gritti are banding together to present their new side project SAYMYNITTI. “BING BONG!” is a hard-hitting bass house tune anchored by a viral and undeniably hilarious TikTok sample that rides on top of gritty low-end, massive horn stabs, and a screechy hard trap switch-up that showcases both of their styles superbly.

House of Joy
Tunnel- Lemonhead Video
“Lemonhead” is a soft and cruel single, like the Evan Dando-fronted band of the same name. When Natasha Janfaza sings on the bridge, “love is boring,” she doesn’t sound mopey: she sounds – and is – correct, and a little thrilled about figuring this out so young. When she stretches out the word “quesadillllllla” like a rope of cheese, you’ll know what I mean when I say that her stuff is funny when you least expect it. It’s a voice in control of her many moods, down to mix them up into one remarkably lucid piece of art that doesn’t deign to hide itself in any way. But that’s the thing that Janfaza – and Tunnel – does best: burrow, connect, and feel – hard.
