about

In “No Other Mother” Marena Whitcher and Andrina Bollinger not only hide innumerable sounds as rhythmic elements; they also disguise a subtle sense of humor: “I'm kinda bored, producing my umbilical cord.” Giving voice to an embryo, they make us think we hear the meow of a cat, one of Eclecta’s nature-samples. The umbilical cord, assembled in boredom, runs like a visual thread throughout the music video, coordinating the symbiotic opposites of natural cycles. Supporting a clash of textures and materials, Eclecta’s aesthetic vision transcends the distinction between the familiar and the fantastic. The journey they take us on leads us out of the womb, through the birth canal, into the world. The take-away is a naval that evokes a sensation of the warm amniotic fluid that we left behind.

lyrics

You put me inside you
In your blood and fertile goo
I’m splitting up, cell by cell
Designing my fontanelle

I feel your strength in my veins
Riding your waves of pleasures and pains
I’m splitting more cells, I’m kinda bored
Producing my umbilical chord

I’m in love in love, I’m in love in love
I’m in love in love, I’m in love in love
I’m in love in love, I’m in love in love
Imma love ya, don’t want no other mother

It’s starting to get tight
I’m starting to want space
Wanting to see the light and your beautiful face
Twisting and turning round
Kicking into your womb
And I’m screaming out loud: LET ME OUT!

I’m in love in love, I’m in love in love
I’m in love in love, I’m in love in love
I’m in love in love, I’m in love in love
I’m a lover, don’t want no other mother

I’m going into position, head down first
Mentally preparing for my squished outburst
Building up loads of adrenalin
Practicing my greeting-grin

Everything is black
Everything is red
Everything is blue
And I’m calling you
Everything is bright
Everything is white and red
I’m on your bed

I’m in love in love, I’m in love in love
I’m in love in love, I’m in love in love
I’m in love in love, I’m in love in love
Imma love ya, don’t want no other mother

I’m in love in love, I’m in love in love
I’m in love in love, I’m in love in love
I’m in love in love, I’m in love in love
Imma love ya

I’m in love in love, I’m in love in love
I’m in love in love, I’m in love in love
I’m in love in love, I’m in love in love
I’m a lover, don’t want no other mother
