Swedish indie rock band Koala Bar creates music that connects intimately with the human soul with Pas de Bourrée making for a prime example. Their reflective approach to music and sound is what sets them apart in their artistic pursuits. Defining themselves as a sound rather than a band, they present a chill space to hang out in.
Illuminating and light guitar melodies create a mellow and soothing atmosphere. It’s mystifying like a waning moon and a warm sea. Tinted with the color of lavender rose, surreal emotions snake through the song like ocean currents. The vocals bring frothing tides of melancholy; dazzling gifts from the lamenting moon.
The texture palette and the vocal timbre resonate with each other to soothe and ease. It unearths the small happiness lodged in the crevices of pain. Engulfed like a fossil in a numb haze, it preserves the moment’s emotions and lessons for the coming years. The minimalistic and dilated vocals and instrumentation hide the deep emotional experiences of being human that can only be felt.
Almost instantaneously, we recognize the pain and empathize with the experience. The cries of a shattered passion, fractured into a myopic kaleidoscope of strange familiarity. A parallel reality; dreams of a happier life and a whole heart stitch the track into a surreal canvas. Eternally blue and immune to the mercurial workings of time and fate, swallowed into a peaceful slumber, it bobs like bubbles towards the sky.
