Houses - Soak It Up

"..there is always soma, delicious soma, half a gramme for a half-holiday, a gramme for a week-end, two grammes for a trip to the gorgeous East, three for a dark eternity on the moon..." Brave New World

Soma Days

Swedish boutique music label ICEA adopted the Positano natives to polish their dream-pop soundscapes. Listeners were introduced to Emmecosta’s music at the end of 2016 and the dawn of 2017 with the tracks “His Power of Youth” and “Miguel”. The synths, punctuated guitar and silky vocals evoke memories of Phoenix circa 2004. The remaining two tracks, “Heavy Heart” and “A Mountain From Us” blend pulsing waves of synths and echoing vocals, mirroring Snakadaktal’s Sleep in the Water (2013). 

In many ways, Emmecosta communicate intoxicating atmospheres with their dream-pop, reminiscent of Washed Out, where the muffled vocals paint the landscape and guide the listener to melt into nature. The music videos for “Miguel” and “His Power of Youth” were filmed in seaside Positano and Scandinavian forests, complementing the music and the story of the band. Emmecosta says, “There is a hidden romantic darkness in the actual story, which represents the band’s melancholy in relation to their hometown in Italy, and what it was been like to immigrate to Sweden. There is a craving for home, yet acceptance of new belonging.” 

Stereogum and Clash Magazine have both praised the band for their “blissed out electronics with a liquid feel” more accurately than their self-proclaimed “post-club tropical indie soul” - a description that raises eyebrows, but enhances a sense of self-awareness in the calming hours after a party, before bed.  Emmecosta dedicates their music ideas to time and place - living in the moment, while feeling split between their lives in Italy and Sweden. The result is a sound that feels comfortable and contemplative.   

"’Velour’ is the feeling of unshakable longing for a place we’ve never been. This is a specific form of wanderlust – a craving for a distant land or a deep feeling of ‘homesickness’ for a place we have never seen. We imagine distant places through small fragments: everyday life seen elsewhere. We are going through a strange sensation of disorientation, something magical seen from far away. We fall in love with this fragment. It holds the promise for more. We move around it.” - Emmecosta

Maybe in this house I’m not the same 
A set of walls to block out all the blame 
I’m counting up the days without the shame 
Hoping that you’ll notice my new name 

And you’re not what I pictured
But you’re doing it better than my imagination could and you’ve
Found your way into my nights 
And the days seep by and there’s nothing else I can think about 

And I find myself losing my breath when I’m round you
I find myself losing my breath when I’m round you
You’re talking but I can’t hear a thing that you’re saying 
I’m just waiting to catch that glint in your eye

Maybe here with you i’m not the same
You make me laugh like i don’t feel this pain
You’re in my headphones dancing through my brain
Singing me the words i wish you’d say

And you’re not what I pictured
But you’re doing it better than my imagination could and you’ve
Found your way into my nights 
And the days seep by and there’s nothing else I can think about 

I’ve got this space here now and it’s all mine 
I can pick and choose who comes in
And for once I think I’m feeling fine 
It’s you that I want to let in

And I find myself losing my breath when I’m round you
I find myself losing my breath when I’m round you
You’re talking but I can’t hear a thing that you’re saying 
I’m just waiting to catch that glint in your eye
