MIYNT – HighClouds

Let Swedish artist MIYNT put a spell on you with “Lucy In Disguise”

**Stockholm-based singer-songwriting and producer MIYNT drops third single from upcoming EP Stay On Your Mind, due out August 2 on B3SCI Records.**

Combining elements of lo-fi psychedelic rock and indie electronic music, MIYNT follows on from her 2016 debut EP, the helpfully titled EP No. 1, with the third single from her forthcoming EP, Stay On Your Mind, set to release early August. On “Lucy In Disguise”, MIYNT has the vocal sweetness and acidic drawl of Lykke Li or Mette Lindberg of the band The Asteroids Galaxy Tour. Her tone creates a hypnotic edge, spilling onto the track and giving it a shimmering quality. The effect of hypnosis, of being drawn deeper into the track, rings out with the prescient line “I put a spell on you”. Akin to a Greek siren, the artist is calling sailors to their death.

At the introduction of the ringing tambourine and cymbals inflecting in the background, we’re already under MIYNT’s spell. The juxtaposition of the rich lead guitar and the light and airy rhythm guitars creates a real depth of sound. The closing minute is like a sonic exploration of a myriad of emotions, taking on a life of its own peaking to a magnificent crescendo. To the ears, it’s a great exhalation that feels like riding the crest of a wave; an evocation of the sublime. Listen below.

MIYNT – The Strangest Game

Arnaud Marty — Mon, 20 Jun 2016 15:18:08 +0000

Stockholm artist MIYNT just released her brand new single “The Strangest Game.” The melancholic and retro ballad will be the lead single of her debut “EP N°1” that will be released on September 16, via B3SCI Records.

As the interpret of “Civil War” and “Nick Drave” explains:
[su_quote]”The strangest game is a love song. It’s about the first phase of falling in love, when the person that you’re falling for is still a mystery and everything you do with this person feels very exciting.” MIYNT[/su_quote]

The track will be featured on her debut EP, simply titled “N°1.” It will feature production from Daniel Nigro who notably worked with Sky Ferreira or Carly Rae Jepsen. The EP is said to be “a refined sonic development with rich instrumentation and complex laying revealing a sound astutely honed and sharper than ever.” It sounds really promising and we expect more singles before its official release on September 16. Furthermore, MIYNT also designed the artwork of “The Strangest Game”, as she actually did for all the tracks of the EP!

MIYNT should delight all the Lana Del Rey‘s fans with this new swaying and classy single: “The Strangest Game”
