“Treat You Better” by RÜFÜS DU SOL
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The Aussie trio of Tyrone Lindqvist, Jon George and James Hunt, better known as RÜFÜS DU SOL, took a two-day trip to the desert, to Joshua Tree, to get away from the bright lights of Los Angeles. The goal: to find lyrics for a few songs off their new album, SOLACE, that didn't sport any. After listening to the project's initial tracks, whatever took place in the desert those couple of days was magic...and, I want some of what they're having.

Few artists the past three years have exploded and took the electronic music world by storm like RÜFÜS. Creating a sound that is unmistakable, their music feels intentional and important. On this new record, they played with sound design, trying to emulate the feeling of space-time ripping apart, splintering in front of you. A metaphor for life and relationships and heartbreak. SOLACE is one part Los Angeles, with it's combo of dazzling vibes and dark undertones, and one part Joshua Tree, in it's thoughtful, reflectional lyrics.

"Treat You Better" is the summery, synth dance-pop sound that made me fall in love with RÜFÜS. Resembling the spirit of my favorite BLOOM track, "Brighter", it's the love song that we all sat down to write, but couldn't find the words for. Initially I thought this was written for a significant other, but I like the idea of this being written to one's self. Whoever it's written for, it's beautiful. The tracks escalates in all the right ways, yet remains tender throughout. The chorus you hear is comprised of their closest friends singing in unison. <3
