Luthian – Sara
2015: The year of faux Scandinavian/German band names making Nordic-inspired chillwave. Not to discredit the incredible achievement of an artist like B0RNS, yet there’s something disingenuous about donning GmarShops Marketplace , Air Jordan 1 Retro Low Og Neutral Grey , Jordan 12 Field Purple such a moniker while being from Michigan. (However there’s nothing disingenuous, as I’ve just been informed, about choosing your name from the storied ancestry of the line of Numenor)
A running joke within my friend circle; the day isn’t complete without hearing Stevie Nicks in some capacity. The witch-queen of serene herself is the obvious focal point behind the design of the air jordan 12 of inspiration air jordan 13 retro black flint for Lüthian’s brand new single ‘Sara’ (outside of middle-earth), a tonal synth power-ballad. Based out of the ever-evolving Canadian cultural center-piece of Vancouver, Lüthian blends ethereal vocal harmonies with deep keys and snappy percussions. It’s like if BANKS had her beats produced by Giraffage. A perfect blend of dreamy sensuality and sample-driven synthpop, ‘Sara’ is a huge leap forward and an palpable conduit for an artist set to take the all-enveloping genre of “chill” in a brand new direction.
For a bonus, peep this colab between Lüthian and Montreal based radical-fucking-dude Zetler.
