"A story that's still unfolding, this small collection of songs explores an emotional rollercoaster period in my life when the feelings and thoughts were most shockingly fresh," explains Sivan. "Revisiting these songs and moments is tough, but I'm proud of this music and excited to have it out in the world."
Sivan recorded five of the EP's six songs with producer Oscar Görres (The Weeknd, MARINA, Tove Lo) between Stockholm and Los Angeles, just prior to the lockdown. The leadoff track, "Take Yourself Home," trended at #1 on Twitter worldwide following its release earlier this year and has now attained over 76 million cumulative global streams. The New York Times hailed "
Take Yourself Home" as an "understatedly lush quasi-soul thumper." PAPER said, "It's perhaps the first great song to come out of our collective apocalyptic state of mind during the COVID-19 outbreak." See below for the full EP track listing.
IN A DREAM is now available for pre-order BELOW.
Music bundles, including a deluxe CD package, are available BELOW.
