Premiere: 1921 – ‘Holy’

Electronic chamber music from Sweden...

A project's first steps are probably their most important.

Those initial recording sessions tend to define you, no matter how hard to try to move away from them.

Swedish duo 1921 tried to make each step count, approaching writing and recording with real intensity.

Electronic chamber music, David Åhlén (vocals) and Andreas Eklöf (synthesizers and electronics) unite to craft innovative, cinematic pop music.

We're able to share the video for new song 'Holy', seemingly the first track they recorded together.

1921 explain: "We wanted to create a room for a restless stillness. Like recording the silence in a church. Everything seeps through the walls to create subtle transformations. 'Holy' was the first song we recorded as 1921."

Tune in below.

1921 will support SOHN at Paris' Cafe de la Danse on April 21st – tickets.
