LELO | BREATHING | Single Review


  If you love to drown yourself into the sensual and serene music genre, then you certainly need to add this single to your chill playlist. Breathing. is a heartfelt, dreamlike song by the long haired, indie dream-pop lad LELO. Originating from Leeds, the young male has been releasing songs since 2017 including an EP entitled Different Types of Love which was made up of four unique songs. Now under a year, and paired with his new current, which he has been teasing since December ‘Breathing’ certainly lives up to it’s expectations.  

  The song doesn’t have many lyrics but I feel there isn’t a need for lyrics when the rhythm itself sends you into this hypnotic atmosphere. The tempo whilst soft still has a slightly upbeat angle to it with the crashing cymbals dominating the beat whilst LELO's voice has this soft echoed style to it that partners up beautifully with the backing instruments. Of course this type of genre sometimes isn’t for everyone, especially the metal heads out there. However, this song has a deep quality in both its lyricism and accompaniment that it could drift anyone into a chilled state. The lyric, ‘I’ve lost all feeling’ that features in the chorus of the song mirrors the ability the song can give you whilst listening to it.



  The single, which was only released yesterday (5.3.18), is now available on Spotify, Apple Music and Google Play so seriously check him out if you want to put yourself into a musically peaceful bubble.
