“Making this EP taught me how to feel again after years of being an empty shell of myself. So I hope when you listen to it, it helps you feel something too.”
Opening with a monstrously bassy, cinematic, vaporwave-tinged opening sequence, Sunsets doesn’t initially seem like it’s going to be a heartfelt R&B album. But the debut EP from Mountain View-born, East Bay-based artist Sunday Soleil is just that, exploring personal stories and emotions in an atypical sonic boundary between glitchy chiptunes and sparse soul arrangements. From the melancholy yearning on “Worlds Collide” to the thumping heart beating within “Treasure Chest,” the work instantly transports you into the artist’s emotional consciousness.
