One of those songs that sounds too good to be true. A string of classic eighties-like, electronic, ambient instrumentation – a dreamlike atmosphere – and yet a brilliantly new and now melody, lighting up the darkness, with superbly thoughtful escapist lyrics.

Experimental as you like and yet firmly rooted in 80’s/90’s influence, with a classic and deep vocal and completely unexpected lyrics; this is a great track to discover just in time for the new year and travels around Europe.
