It’s been just over two years since Swedish duo Galantis dropped their debut album in June of 2015, catapulting their way from rising artists to internationally known producers. Back in May of this year the two stepped back into the scene with new music, dropping a relaxed, dancehall-style track called “Hunter.” Today Galantis has continued that momentum, dropping yet another new single “True Feeling,” accompanied by an official music video and album announcement.
“True Feeling” draws you in from the first note with a subdued, tropical-style lead-in. The lyrics pair well with the steady build of the production, breaking into a lighthearted drop that ties together tropical notes, upbeat percussion and smooth vocals. The video is equally fun-loving, following the duo’s journey on tour while incorporating simple animations and quotes from fans talking about what Galantis means to them.
This single follows the exciting announcement of Galantis’s sophomore album, The Aviary, slated to release on September 15 via Big Beat Records (pre-order available here). Beyond fresh new music, the two paired with notable art instagram @StreetArtGlobe and their extensive group of artists to tag Galantis-themed murals in countries all across the world. The vibrant, neon-drenched works can be found from Auckland to London and just about everywhere in between, and fans are encouraged to post photos to Instagram with the hashtag #GalantisAviary to get the word out about their newest project. In the meantime, check out “True Feeling” below and enjoy!
