The desire to shake off their former selves in to something a tad more “palatable” was strong enough that it appears they scrubbed the internet Gavin Belson-style of any of their previous misgivings (today’s Tinder generation is gonna need that technology if they’re ever going to run for office…). It’s as if in 2015, the four Episode boys went for a walk in a meadow, discussed the status of their band, and picked a whole bouquet of oopsie-daisies… After regrouping and recentering in their East Village apartment, vocalist Daniel Lonner reminisced on a time when he almost drowned as a kid… and boom, therein came their new single (this song) “Swim,” ya know, cuz “sometimes love can feel like you’re drowning.” How lovely.

Fickle Friends own specific brand of synth pop somehow walks a fine line, but in the end hits just the right note.

Enough with the music puns, this song is a lot fun. SWIM is an upbeat, poppy tune that wraps synth, vocals and guitar in perfect harmony. Somewhere, André Allen Anjos, better known as RAC, is kicking himself that he didn’t come up with it first.

 

 

I also am really enjoying the Paperwhite Remix of this song. It changes the flavor a bit while keeping the feel of the original. It’s an excellent example of what a good remix can do and I appreciate the dreamy landscape at work in this one.
