Flashbacks EP by We Are The Way For The Cosmos To Know Itself

Named after a Carl Sagan’s revered documentary series, Cosmos: A spacetime Odyssey, WATWFTCTKI shared a fascination for the epic and 'over the top' mood that Carl created in the series. Taking a quote from the series, “We are a way for the cosmos to know itself” describes the epic and lush sound that the trio strive to create.



Electro-pop group We Are The Way For The Cosmos To Know Itself returns with their debut EP ’Flashbacks EP’, which was written on a farm in the countryside of Denmark where Mads and Julie moved to recently. In many ways the songs reflect this transition from a busy city-life in Copenhagen towards a more peaceful period where there has been a lot of time and peace and quiet to reflect on past relations and forgotten memories.



The songs have all been created in the studio that the band built themselves and many of the lyrics have been written during early mornings when the boys were still sleeping and Julie was walking by Roskilde Fjord – close to the studio and house.


The trio tells us: “We have been drawn to exploring the retrospective and nostalgic. We wanted the songs to be the kind of music that brings back memories and that you put on when you feel like being a little reflective. To capture this we have drawn on inspiration from various 80s and 90s bands,

however we have tried to mix the nostalgic vibes with more up-to-date productions in order to keep the music sounding fresh and modern.”
The songs are about taking time to reflect on relations to the people around you, both the ones you still enjoy fighting for and the ones you've had to let go.



Receiving praise from tastemakers such as Hillydilly & Dancing Astronaut calling their most recent releases as "infectious vocal melodies” and “sugar-sweet synthpop. With notable appearances on New Music Friday playlists in Denmark, Germany, Columbia, Iceland, Switzerland and Spotify’s global Indie Pop playlist boasting 780,000 followers and a deal with NIF Music to release music in South Korea, the group is sure to thrive on an international scale.

WATWFTCTKI creates cosmic electro pop that travels beyond the clubs and the chic segment into trippy cosmic depths to bring you pure and star-strewn trance.

With weightless female vocals and heavy bass lines the three-piece takes you on a journey that will have you spooning the entire universe. The
band plays colourful and energetic liveshows filled with intensity and lights.
