“Don’t come closer, because I might hurt you boy / You don’t deserve it, I treat you like a toy.” So sings 28-year-old South East London musician Tatyana on “It’s Over”, a sad and squelchy electro-leaning earworm about desire, loss and grey-area relationships. Much of second album It’s Over is like this: bright, danceable electronics paired with lyrics about frustration, anger and confusion. “I think people are afraid of being hurt and I’m the opposite,” she says. “I’m like, hurt me, because that’s where real life happens. You can never protect yourself from everything.”
