Who is Glüme? We’re about to find out. Seeming to be from another planet or a different dimension, the ethereal artist has just released a multi-track version of single “Body”. The song floats along dreamily, but not without darker elements — the sound of being trapped in a place that can’t be reached, Stranger Things-esque synths. The “Body” seems to embody a type of temporary prison, but also something powerful that should be celebrated.
Of the single, the artists states:
“Body is about returning from an episode I get with my heart disease; starting to notice each part of my body working again. It’s an intense feeling; you want to be loud; express relief; sadness; feeling powerful, but you’re still weak. I think anytime a body is taken by physical or mental illness; you come out of it…It’s a triumph that’s hard to communicate.”
