Do you remember 7000apart? We featured them not so long ago; at the time, they were releasing ‘No Is a Nice Word’, a poppy, slightly haunting gem that encouraged us all to say the word ‘no’ a bit more. Their story was pretty peculiar, and perhaps a further confirmation that long-distance relationships sometimes work. Well, The Swedish/American duo’s quality was instantly clear to us, and we knew they were on to something big, thanks to refined, catchy songwriting and a knack for simple, friendly productions. We were then happy to see them come back with ‘Whole Lot Left to Lose, a short but sweet slice of pop goodness, one you can taste even when you are in a rush.
Stopping short of the two minutes mark, the record hits you gently but steadily, drawing you in with an innocent whistled riff, followed by minimal production; guitars, contemporary beats, and Amelie’s crystalline, evocative vocals. 7000apart’s artistic endeavour works perfectly: the result is uniformed, cohesive material which is asking for attention, and rightly so.
Husband and wife in real life, 7000apart always had something to say, charging their songs with mental health messages, self-care hymns and a call to staying true to yourself. While ‘Whole Lot Left to Lose’ is the perfect introduction to the duo, thanks to being short and accessible, we encourage you to give a listen to their entire catalogue, where you’ll discover two first-class artists that don’t make compromises, instead pursuing the best music they can deliver.
