Youth Novels - Blue (2022)


It's been already fiver years since the Poznań-based duo released their last EP. While Chaos I Create successfully married catchy synthpop with moody dream pop, their new album shows their melancholic and super atmospheric face. Hence the name: Blue

The Ania Babrakowska and Emil Nowak duo has a fantastic ability to effortlessly engage the audience into their dreamy and nostalgic world. The title track that opens the short EP has its catchy tune and fairly energetic pace but it is, most certainly, a beautiful and tear-jerking ballad. And as such, it sets the tone for the whole album with four perfectly moody compositions. No wonder that they describe their music as meandering between "quasi-acoustic compositions, ambient soundscapes [and] widely understood alternative music". There is a healthy dose of discreet and attractive electronica that builds the backgrounds with tons of ethereal, dreamy af backing vocals all over the place.

The album is closed by The Moon, a track that features Iwona Skwarek's vocals, the artist known from Rebeka and Shyness!, very popular projects on the Polish offstream music scene. This song shows the most the artists' love for the acoustic sound. I really hope we won't have to wait for more of this magical music so long as before.
