Swiss electro-wave artist
Odd Beholder, the project of
Daniela Weinmann, has unveiled her latest track
'Internet Famous'.A protest song critiquing digital monopolies and algorithmic control, it's the second single from her upcoming fourth album '
Honest Work' following January's 'Like A Chore'.
Weinmann explains, "In the song, I position myself — as a small songwriter subject to Spotify’s market power — in solidarity with those working in server complexes or dispossessed by the infrastructure. I’m just a songwriter, no dynamiter. I try to give these issues a voice through art."
She describes the album, due 22nd May, as "petty-bourgeois surrealism", addressing themes of labour and platform capitalism, aiming to confront systems while retaining a sense of humanity.
