Single Review: Skylar Fri – ‘Goldrush’

Now London-based, Danish artist Skylar Fri has previously received acclaim from the likes of Clash, Wonderland and The Line Of Best Fit for previous single ‘Better’, and now returns to grace our ears with an exquisite new offering.

Reflecting on the internal war between your true self and your ideal self, ‘Goldrush’ oozes  an ethereal majesty as a glitchy electronic soundscape flows alongside soaring, honey-sweet vocals. With a twinkling splendour and musically rich layers, it’s a captivating slice of cinematic alt-pop, with shades of the likes of Broods or FKA Twigs.

Of the single, Skylar Fri explains:

“… it’s about a moment of temptation, of thinking money is the answer to happiness and about facing up to traits in ourselves that we don’t always know or want to know that we have”.

‘Goldrush’ is out now via AntiFragile Music.
