At IMC you know that we love contrasts. In Louis Pax's new single, "Motion", released today, the contrast between melancholy lyrics and uplifting melody is quite surprising.

Even if the song evokes a rather difficult separation, it remains on a positive note, thanks to an incredibly bright and catchy melody. The Swedish band, which has just changed its name (you knew them previously as Royal Prospect), is therefore making a resounding comeback. 

This avalanche of Swedish talent on IMC in recent weeks is quite impressive. We have the impression that there is a nest of wonders in this country!

After releasing 9 singles, 2020 reshuffled the cards, like many people, and the band wanted to take off and become completely independent so they left their label: "We felt the need to redefine our sound and produce our own music. To manage to do this we felt we needed a fresh start from everything we had associated ourselves with musically in the past". New sound and new people in their musical environment, here they are ready to face the "after".

"Motion" benefits from truly exceptional production quality. It's definitely professional sound. Every note is in its place, every little detail brings its little something extra, and the vocals are perfectly mastered.

The writing is superb and foreshadows a rather promising future for this new format for Louis Pax.

The music video for this single will be released on July 15th, and for having had the chance to watch it, we can tell you that Louis Pax are as professional visually as they are musically. Follow these little Swedes on their socials to discover this music video, you won't regret it.

Also, they have already announced 3 more singles to come this year and we will be watching them closely because "Motion" is a great appetizer and we can't wait to see what happens next!

Added to our Main Spotify Playlist, our "Uplifting Vibes" playlist, and played daily on Indie Music Center's Radio.

Lyrics

You know you said that you would

Drive me crazy when you’re back

Now we’re in my room

Even though we’re off the track

All the accusations, complications

Never seem to stop

No they never seem to stop

Tonight, you and I

We got lost.

Said forget about it

Now we’re coming back. Walk the line

And I never seen it

Hoping I was right

I know that your world was gonna stay in motion

Wish that I could read your mind

Maybe I didn’t I understand

I was blind

Admit that I was so confused

Stay in motion

Wish that I could stay in motion

You know we said that we would

Survive it if we tried

So now we’re wasting our time on a stupid lie

All the accusations, complications

Never seem to stop

No they never seem to stop

Tonight, you and I

We got lost.

Said forget about it

Now we’re coming back. Walk the line

And I never seen it

Hoping I was right

I know that your world was gonna stay in motion

Wish that I could read your mind

Maybe I didn’t I understand

I was blind

Admit that I was so confused

Stay in motion

Wish that I could stay in motion

It’s coming up from behind but I guess we didn’t realize it

It was all a lie but I guess we didn’t really mind it

Anyway, it’s too late. Don’t play it cool. I know that you liked it

Anyway, it’s too late. Don’t play it cool. I know that you liked it

Stay in motion

(Repeat Chorus)
