Playfulness in electronic music can be a hard thing to capture, without sounding like pop music and lacking depth and nuance. Silvermannen (Sweden) have got the balance just right. ‘Gryning’ is light on it’s feet but still has a weight of gentle melancholy to it. It’s definitely more autumnal than summery in its vibe. There’s more than a whiff of nostalgia in the synth sounds – harking back to early Depeche Mode and elements of Kraftwerk. Lovely stuff.
‘Gryning’ comes from the new album Mitt i Bilden which is released today, June 7th.
