A sweeping, cinematic, emotional change is in the air. Molly Nilsson’s sixth studio album Zenith begins with clear, wide eyes open to Earth as we would love it to be but seldom is. Recorded in her home of Berlin and whilst touring and, as ever, conceived, produced, written and recorded in solitude, Zenith is Nilsson’s big statement and consequently her most affecting work to date. It sees her reveling in big arrangements, sweeping synth strings, bigger choruses and emotions. Like the rest of us she looks within and to endless sunsets in wonder and puzzlement.

That Molly Nilsson is a DIY cult figure is beyond question; she has always written directly and with wit straight down the line between the universal and the personal. The difference with Zenith, and you can hear it in the opening chords of opener The Only Planet, is that her scope is now much wider and her heart heavier than ever before: over a post-ecstatic dusk, Nilsson serenades the globe in a loving embrace. Following on, 1995 is, arguably, one of Nilsson’s finest songs to date. It’s one of those songs to learn the lyrics to, to listen to on repeat, a reason to wear the grooves down to the bone, it’s why pop music can be one of the greatest art forms we have. It’s an example of how, on this album, Molly draws the listener closer to her heart than ever before. There’s simply no escape from the line “The plans that you made / when you still had the time / I’ve saved all the things that you left behind but by now I guess I’d consider them all mine /Windows 95, is only a metaphor for what I feel inside / Although I’m older now / there’s still an emptiness that’s never letting go somehow.” Show-stopper Mountain Time is the soundtrack to being on the run, from societal conventions, from normative ideas of happiness, from your surroundings. It’s the intoxicating call of the renegade. That’s not to say that Nilsson’s light touch has been forsaken for grandiose statements. Bunny Club begins as a demo-sketch before breaking into a fast-paced tale of doomed romance with big rave synths and Bus 194 (All There Is) sees Molly joyride through a city on a happy hardcore bus. But it’s tracks like Tomorrow and another contender for best-ever-Molly moment, Happyness that the true scale of what she’s accomplished reveals itself. We’re locked in a spiraling orbit, strings and bass whirling, gazing at the spinning planet below us as we contemplate both the ultimate freedom in loneliness and the glimmer of hope in the Other. Can we ever be truly with someone? Are we ever truly alone?

Over the 13 tracks here we get the impression that Nilsson may always be restless; like anyone else she has conflicting feelings of love and hate. It’s just not many other people can tell you exactly how you feel before you know it yourself.

This map is pretty
What place is it for?
I wanted to live here
And now I'm just bored
I always stood out 
Like everyone else
Spent my life in a store
Up on a shelf
I invented the wheel 4 times just to get home to you
I do this every night
It feels alright
I get so mad every time I fight with you
I'm not gonna go back to school

When umbrellas come out people see me walking down these bridges
Where I first saw you through the fog in the streetlights on that cold wet concrete morning
You reflecting that fire
I thought you could warm me forever
But a dream can’t hurt you until you don’t need to be in it anymore
’Til your favorite song sounds best when you mute it
I was stuck under a name, about to cut my ears off
When your car drove by and you turned your head and you smiled at me through the pouring rain
And now I'm starting to see that I can sow the seeds that no one else can see
You have something for everyone; they’ll never ask your name
It’s in every little photon from here on out
When the parachutes come out I'll still see you in between these towers
Do I know you yet?
It's getting late in the seasons and I met you so many episodes ago
I invented the wheel 4 times just to get home to you
I do this every night
It feels alright
I get so mad every time I fight with you
I’m not gonna go back to school

I was lost, lost
No one even knew I was gone
No one really pays attention
Lost, lost
No one even knew I was gone
No one really pays attention like I do

I’ve been collecting new tracks for this project so that I can share them with you together in one bundle. I’m thrilled that this project is attracting wildly talented new and innovative artists from all over the globe. On this short mix, you’ll hear diverse elements: two songs from Japan (though one of them pretends to be Russian for shits and giggles), a poetic song from Australia, another from New Zealand (the one track here not a premiere, I just love it so much I can’t help but plug it again), yet another from England, and of course a smattering of new ideas from far corners in the United States. I love that part of doing the premiere mixtapes. Have a listen!

Please do not see all the time through my eyes
You never knew me all the way until now

Find a space
Rearrange the face
’Til it looks like how you feel inside
There’s nowhere to hide

Almost everything that you know
Everybody already knows
Every photograph you’ll ever take
99% the same

I feel but I can’t steal all the light shining by

It’s not fair
Every star up there
Shines inside a million minds
Why even try?

Drill down deep into the hidden moon
It doesn’t orbit anything but you
The darkest thought in your mind
Someday everyone will find
I’m still dreaming of a separate space
One woman to love, kids to raise
My songs to sings, colors to fly
A beautiful house that no one else can buy

Everybody’s opening their eyes

Not Fair

The Love Within

"Places" is track 1 of 11 from Cave Paintings

We’ve seen a lot since we last seen each other
We’ve got a lot to say
We’ve got a lot stuck in our heads
Or wherever it is now

Places I’ve been
No one will ever see them again

In the eyes of passing faces
I see colors that weren’t there before
Are they coming into your world too?
I wish I knew

Even in old places
Like in black and white movies
Through the screen there’s new light shining through
Do you see it too?

Higher and higher I’m afraid my head’s in the stars on TV I can see
The shape of a heart
The shape of a heart breaking
The shape of a heart breaking free
The shape of a heart breaking free from
The shape of a heart

Places

"Fashion" is track 2 of 11 from Cave Paintings

I like the way her clothes fit on her
She means to look exactly how she does down to every detail
And everybody compliments her
Her mother and her father said that she is pretty and they love her 

I hope some day I see her naked
Then she won't try to make her body move in diagram directions
In this new world I'll get to know her
And when she looks around she’ll see without me saying that we fit together

How will I know it’s her?
How will she know I’m him?
How would she stay alive if she has nothing to hide?
How could I be mad about her fashion?

I have no idea if anybody looks like her
I don’t know where she is
I don’t know where she’ll go
I have no idea if anybody looks like her
I don’t know where she goes
To try on all the clothes

Is fashion enough to keep her inside?

You wake up in a good mood
But soon the dream is gone
Turn me over
I’ll be good for another song
I rush through your veins
But your pain’s been your pain
Through the sands of time
Your hands are mine

Your hands are my hands
My hands are your hands
You’ll do the job, I’ll take the credit
You’ll never live to regret it
My hands are your hands
Your hands are my hands

Suddenly it’s not so bad
When I think of all the good friends I’ve had
They work where I work

Each moment there’s a chance 
The pattern will be clear
Each moment there’s a chance 
The pattern will be broken in the middle
By a microscopic detail 
In the shadow that you sent me
Down the assembly line
When 2 things are the same
They’re the same thing

You wake up in a factory
The numbers I send you are prime
I’m sorry for this nightmare
But I’m on another timeline
Just try not to panic
‘Cause static isn’t static
If you give it some time
Your hand will be in mine

Hands

If you are lonely come inside
If you are nervous you can sigh
You might get busy and you might get caught
In the middle of something where you’re not

How wide will the tunnel be when you get to the end of the tunnel?
How wide will the tunnel be when you get to the end in the end?

If you are lonely come inside
If you're nervous you can sigh
You might get busy and you might get caught
In the middle of something where you’re not

Nervous
