Gravity by Somni

UK born, LA based producer and singer/songwriter Somni preps for his third full length album Gravity, filled with unique and melodic songwriting, headnod-inducing rhythms, and swirling electronic production that seamlessly combines styles in the vein of lo-fi hip hop, indie folk, and LA beat scene adventurousness. Exploring themes of escapism, stress and anxiety, growing pains, and the passage of time, Gravity is an emotional and sonic rollercoaster filled with intricate and unexpected layers for you to peel back, listen after listen.

“I think this album deep down comes from a place of desperation, of anxiety and stress over life and the passage of time. It’s about getting older, trying to figure out a path to tread and realizing the way that the world is set up and that the cards may be stacked against you. It’s about trying to grow as a person and feeling these forces that are at odds with your growth, tugging at you to drop back down into the hole you’ve been inside. That’s where the concept of Gravity comes from; the forces around us and inside of us, that are always pushing against us, and how we can either try to escape these forces or accept the reality of them.” - Somni
