Former Swedish Idol semi-finalist Sebastian Rydgren returns with his stunning new single, "Glitter in My Eyes". It is once again a standout track that focuses a lot on his vocals, and for good reason too, as what you will be hearing is one of Sweden's most underrated singers.
... a genre-bending rollercoaster of a track that flips seamlessly from ethereal, melancholic pop into high-energy drum and bass.
The intro is very melancholic, with dreamy echoing vocals, before the track kicks into a drum and bass rhythm around the 1:20 mark. As soon as that comes, it honestly feels like a different song. It goes from being ethereal and dreamy to high-energy workout music that will take you by surprise on the first listen.
With tracks that have racked up over hundreds of thousands of plays, Sebastian is certainly an artist who is flying a little bit under the radar. But as far as I'm concerned, when this song lands in the inbox of his followers, I can see it taking off for him.
It's such a dynamic song and takes you on a proper rollercoaster. Almost think of it as two songs for the price of one, so be sure to get stuck into this as soon as you can.
