Vanbot - I Will Never Not Have Had You
Updated: Apr 5
There is a fine line between melancholy and euphoria in pop music. It's a sweet spot that the Swedes have traditionally been very good at. Think Robyn's 'With Every Heartbeat' or everything ABBA ever recorded. Vanbot has clearly been paying attention because 'I Will Never Not Have Had You' perfectly represents the cruel act of having loved and lost while still being happy to have found love at all. It's also three and a half minutes of gorgeously produced cascading electronica with angelic vocals and more echo than a network of underground caverns. Whack on your headphones, and dive in.
