New Music: oddnesse – Summer’s Almost Over

Rebeca Arango, aka oddnesse (rhymes with god bless), made a real splash with her Overindulgence EP earlier this year. She’s back with more new music, the mellow indie sound of Summer’s Almost Over.

With a vocal style that seems to flow between indie, jazz, and folk, the track has a unique, captivating sound. That individuality is something that breathes life into the arrangement as well. Its textured, leisured take on indie-electro works as a sensitive bedrock for some very confessional but optimistic lyrics, disarming the listener’s emotional defences.

She says about the track, “I wrote this song during the summer of 2019, which for me was a listless summer where I barely existed yet produced a lot. I had let parts of myself rot, waiting out the closure of an emotional agreement, unsure of what would come next, regretting ever having had higher expectations of the situation I got myself wrapped up in.”

“In retrospect, I’d say that I ate the correct amount of Snickers bars and got the sleep I needed whenever I could. For anyone else slumped in that murky pool of waiting, in this song we might feel into the listlessness and console ourselves with a little daydreaming, a little candy. It’s almost over.”

oddnesse’s Summer’s Almost Over can be streamed or downloaded on all major platforms, including Apple Music and Spotify.
