So the summer is finally here and I have the perfect song to soundtrack it! ’82 is the latest single by the Swedish electro-pop duo Death In The Afternoon.
Airy, dreamy and filled with stunning vocal lines, ‘82 begins with a steady beat and lures you into its eerily stunning sound right away. Playing with the evergreen romanticism softly implied by bands like M83 or Young Galaxy, DITA are all about looking skyward and actually providing the sonic jetpacks essential to getting there.
The nostalgic feel of this mid-tempo summer soundtrack presents the widely respected Scandi winning formula of writing songs filled with skill, quality and creativity. Its tempered instrumental atmosphere is given a steady rise and a contrasting sense of melancholia by the distant lead vocals, leaving the listener hopelessly enchanted throughout and wanting more.
’82 will be released via Summer Heart’s label Sommarhjärta, and it will be available for sale and download everywhere from the 28th August.
