San Holo continues to add to his stay vibrant EP, with his fifth release from the project, “in case i never see you again…,” featuring Analogue Dear. With a tucked-back guitar and light piano melody, the ambient serenade flutters through speakers and crescendos into a larger-than-life orchestral symphony of indie soundscapes made unique to the bitbird mastermind himself. After the growing tension, listeners are treated with a quiet 30 seconds that feel meditative.
On a promise to release a song a week, the singer-songwriter stylist continues his streak, coming up on his fifth week of new music. The phrase “stay vibrant” has been a trend in the San Holo fan community, as one might notice on the artist’s Twitter and Instagram a percentage next to his name. He expresses what the “stay vibrant” percentage means on his website: “Telling people how you feel is not always easy. When I try to express what I really feel, words rarely seem to capture the essence. Most feelings are so much bigger than words could ever describe. Using the percentage % seems like the perfect way to express how I feel without putting it into words.”
