Slowlife
Southern Germany-based Slowlife is the solo project of songwriter Patrick Behrens. After going back and forth for awhile, in 2020 he finally found his sound that he didn’t know he was looking for.
On July 20th, Slowlife came out with Dreaming on all platforms. The song is about all and any dream that seem too good to be true.
In my opinion, the tone of the song is interesting for a song strictly about dreams. The video as well, which gives off a bit of a creepy vibe. I love the dream pop vibes though.
I would compare this tune to the likes of Bob Dylan, and Jason Ebbs. If you like the tune then follow and like the links below!
