WHAT WE HAVE TO SAY:
"the river" by demotapes and pluko is a mesmerizing electronic track brimming with hope and nostalgia. From the opening lyrics "Please be gentle with me," the song sets a gentle and reflective tone that draws you in immediately. The repetition of the hook "and the river" serves as a hypnotic chant you won’t be able to get out of your head.
“I wrote this song in San Francisco with my friend Sam (pluko). He came to visit me and we spent a few days just creating in my basement studio. The bulk of the song came together in a single day- the idea just sort of poured out of us. To me, this song feels like the perfect embodiment of what it’s like to create art with your friends- it’s hopeful, nostalgic and fun. I hope you guys love it too <3” - demotapes
The track's melodies are both cute and nostalgic, evoking feelings of happy memories and simpler times. And the best part?
