Our Take

SIR WAS's latest album, "Holding On To A Dream," is like stumbling upon a whimsical carnival in the middle of a dreary town. The Swedish artist, known for his genre-bending sound, takes listeners on a sonic journey that is as unexpected as it is delightful.

From the opening track, "Fly Away," with its dreamy synths and infectious beat, to the hauntingly beautiful "No More Separation," SIR WAS showcases his knack for blending electronic, pop, and indie influences into a seamless tapestry of sound.

The standout track, "Folded So," is a masterclass in production, with its intricate layers of percussion and ethereal vocals creating a mesmerising atmosphere that is impossible to resist. It's the kind of song that makes you want to close your eyes and get lost in the music.

But it's not all sunshine and rainbows on "Holding On To A Dream." Tracks like "The Sun Will Shine" and "Lonely World" delve into darker themes, exploring the complexities of human emotion with a rawness that is both haunting and beautiful.

Overall, "Holding On To A Dream" is a captivating listen from start to finish. SIR WAS's unique blend of sounds and thoughtful lyrics make this album a must-listen for anyone looking to escape into a world of musical enchantment.
