Swarvy Sunny Days Blue
Philadelphian multi-instrumentalist, producer and engineer SWARVY makes his solo debut on Kamaal Williams's imprint Black Focus with a stunning new EP entitled Sunny Days Blue -- his first release as the primary vocalist. Smoked out sound beds and lofi guitars sit gently with SWARVY's voice creating a juxtaposition of melancholic, yet sweet, melodies that loop in your mind's ear long after the record stops spinning. Bones opens with a stripped-back rhythm section and existential observations referencing the human condition of overthinking, a recurring theme throughout the EP. Cool, No Compute and Smile subtly infuse Jazz, Funk and Hip-Hop elements, while New Moon plays out as a low slung hypnotic hymn echoing gracefully into the record's closer Ginger--a meditative ambient spiritual for solo piano.
