I Met Famous People is now out with a debut single, “That Will Save Me”, and it locks into a stylistic groove familiar to anyone who spends too much time on Soundcloud: a piece of blurry, dreamy electro-online pop that walks the line between depressive and tongue-in-cheek in a manner that makes it both at once, with echoes of artists like Charles.
It’s pop music if it’s anything, but a genre omnivore that swallows dance, vapourwave, light funk and more, fusing them into a lo-fi heartache ballad. Thomasson describes the track as being about “falling in love, wanting to kill yourself, partying and getting into fights,” and it comes with a video directed by himself and Wy’s Ebba G. Ågren.
