Apothek are easily one of my favorite recent discoveries, and I'm excited to share their newest single, "Waiting For The Thunder" here with you. Following on from "Family," the new track came out last week, and shows off a stripped back, darker, and yet more lush sound from the Norwegian duo.
Vocalist Morten Myklebust explained the idea behind the song in a press release: “It’s about distance, about travelling; the spaces and places we leave behind,” he says -- those fleeting “little glimpses of memory that warp the truth... How absolutely everything is temporary.”
Rich and contemplative, the melody, laid bar atop relatively simple instrumentation, is stunning. The tone itself is gorgeous, while the melody is velvety smooth; pacifying yet strong.
The track comes along with a beautiful live video, "shot in an old factory building that played a central role in the Norwegian rave community in the 90s”, said producer Nils Martin Larsen.
