It’s been a while since we last heard from beloved Danish art rock band Mew but for those of you who miss their mighty anthems and the distinctive voice of singer Jonas Bjerre we got good news: He’s back with a new band called Tachys, formed with Tobias Wilner (Blue Foundation, New York United, Ghost Society, Bichi). Their lovely debut single When The World Wakes Up comes with a bit of that sweet Mew DNA but also manages to created a musical word of its own, carefully connecting 80s-inspired synth pop vibes and experimental textures. There’s a bit M83 in there as well so if you happen to be a fan of that please give this wonderful song a spin today. The lyrics deal with unexpected twists of fate, both on personal and global scales and right now this a track titled When The World Wakes Up really feels like a fitting theme song for that ‘Covid-we-almost-got-you’-summer of 2021. More music from the Danish duo is expected to arrive later this year.
