Some songs just shock you for their simplicity and ethereal nature. Like a morning wake-up call, they douse you on the head with cold water or sink you into interminable introspection- within which you just keep on pressing repeat, repeat, repeat. Loney, Dear’s “Ignorant Boy Beautiful Girl” is one of those tracks. Good for journeys and daydreams, it carves a clear expanse in your mind through simple breaths/hums and a couple cardinal vocals. Like those old-school atmospheric tracks in Moby’s “Play.”

FYI Loney, Dear is in fact Emil Svanängen, a Swedish multi-instrumentalist and home-recording artist for whom crafting melodies is a stark, demanding, and intensely cherished practice made for small rooms and basements.
