Whatever I Want

Love Notes w/ DJ Tantric

Ariel & the Swoon is the solo project of Ariel Sims (@arielhsims) and truly the definition of a bedroom project: it explores the psychological space of grief and love as un-ironically as I possibly can. For a while, I had reoccurring dreams of dying and coming back to haunt all the people that have broken my heart. I became obsessed with the idea that certain kinds of love and pain can only be communicated in the liminal, nonverbal spaces, like sleep, death and music. Sometimes before sitting down to write, I warmup by doing a quick little cover of any random song, experimenting with my voice, synths and all kinds of stuff. I realized that they all end up sounding like my dreams… it’d be cool if y’all would join me there in this lonely time until we can be together again… ❤✌
