Ammonite - "You Don't Know Me"

“You Don’t Know Me” is the debut release from Ammonite, the project of songwriter-producer Amy Spencer. The track comes from Ammonite's debut full-length release, Blueprints, which explores two opposing sound worlds: the voice and technology. It's where layers of improvised vocals meet electronic processing and flow like a glorious, glitchy, blue river.

Already a proficient singer-songwriter and a guest vocalist for Bicep (penning two tracks on their debut album), TVAM, DC Gore and Motsa, like many women in music, she experienced ‘imposter syndrome’ within male-dominated environments and preferred to leave others to produce. But with Ammonite, Spencer decided to try something new – she left behind songwriting rules and ideas of what production should be, to unlock harmony and melodies she hadn’t accessed before, creating fragments of self-reflective lyrics, drones of humming vowels and broken repetitive words.
