sunshy, a recently formed shoegaze duo from Chicago with Asian-American roots, has released their first single and video. dissolve is out through MakeOutMusic Records, an independent record label based in Los Angeles.
dissolve exudes a vibrant and warm vibe, creating a delightful and melancholic ambiance that encapsulates the essence of solid shoegaze and dreampop sounds.
sunshy explain: "Dissolve is a deeply personal song about feeling disconnected and aimless. It's a sonic cry for help, a forlorn attempt to grasp onto reality, and then the subsequent spiraling into the intangible experience of unavoidable isolation, blurred memories, and unspoken desires. I felt like in my life I wasted so many afternoons dreaming.
"In my head, I imagined it sounding like you were tumbling through the air from thousands of feet above the ground, the wind is too noisy and everything you see around you is blurred by motion. I made it because I wanted to fly—or at least I wanted something that made me feel like I could."
