bon.z‘s I Think I’d Like to Dream unfurls as a mesmerizing journey through a synth-drenched, melancholic soundscape. The track combines the otherworldly mystique of The Besnard Lakes with the introspective vocals reminiscent of Grandaddy, crafting a dreamy and immersive experience. The song’s synths intertwine in a circular motion, mirroring the character’s entrapment in repetitive thoughts and a yearning for escape. The lyrics reveal a deep conflict between the desire for change and the comfort of the familiar. A dramatic drum breakout signals a shift from stagnation to a hopeful dream of transformation. The use of the organ adds a haunting depth, symbolizing existential struggle.
Featured on bon.z’s debut EP, Just Another Blue Day, the song reflects the artist’s own battles with stagnation and the powerful inspiration behind the melody.
Sonic escapism at its very best!
