Here’s a collaboration we didn’t anticipate! Parisian creative Draumr and American songstress Matya have recently joined forces on the uplifting and playful bop ‘Things You Say To Yourself’. In it, Matya shifts into Draumr’s kaleidoscopic universe, a place of bright synthetisers and psychedelic tones, then elevating it into pure pop blissfulness. The result is a track that’s catchy, light, and incredibly vibrant.
The pair met in Los Angeles back in 2022 – since then, Matya has shown big promises, amassing half a million streams on Spotify alone. Draumr, on the other hand, has been steadily releasing a wealth of material with a strong hazy, mesmerizing character. In a way, they reinforce and complete each other – Matya bringing popular and female-driven storytelling and Draumr providing an expansive and colourful sonic vision.
The record also benefits from a stunning music video, part of a series of six interconnected pieces all directed by the French creative himself. Speaking about the single, Draumr explains: “‘Things You Say To Yourself’ is a song about that feeling when you’re falling for someone new, but your brain gets in the way with all its doubts and excuses”.
