The Flowers I See You In by Ninush

For fans of Black Country, New Road, Jockstrap, Sufjan Stevens, classic twee, and those intrusive thoughts you get while spending time with those you love which force you to wonder how this all might end, The Flowers I See You In by Ninush floats weightlessly through relationship dynamics on the wings of a distinctly neoclassical electronic pop style. With the gentlest and subtlest production touches, even these relatively complex compositions fill with air, feeling small and quaint despite entirely immersing us in a sprawling soundscape. This highly focused sound hinges on a handful of instantly delightful melodies, each of which gets greeted with classical counterpoint with extreme precision to constantly evoke fleeting harmony. Like the relationships described on the album, the music meanders from point a to b while intermittently offering us pure bliss in brief yet powerful moments. Our experiences weave in and out of our expectations, our longing weaves in and out of fulfillment, but by converting the journey into a beautiful, singable song, we turn our lives into pure poetry.
