driving with my windows down – Linda Bugatti

The journey into the world of Linda Bugatti starts with the EPs’ title.

Parking the lyrics (sorry, no more puns), the Swedish producer /singer-songwriter delivers a quartet of original lo-fi instrumental tracks to match the title’s mood. And fittingly her name.

And just as the title suggests, the pace here is late-night cruising rather than tyre-screeching street racing. The experience here is designed for soft breezes as the world drifts hazily by.

The sexy sax of summer drive pulls you into her ‘bugattiworld’, where the melodies effortlessly seduce and you’ll easily succumb to its charms. It’s a dreamy experience, cleverly reflected by Linda in the video below.

Linda’s production skills are highlighted in driving with my windows down as she playfully mixes in samples to flourish the sound. And the feeling of elevation continues with the harmonic ambience of free to think, before reaching a new altitude with the honeyed horn melodies in the jazzy – sunset highs.

Throughout, Linda keeps the music feeling melodic without feeling melancholy – chilled and yet cosy warm. And while the tracks may be short (lo-fi tracks tend to be, and this EP is only 8mins long), the enjoyment lasts.

Choose your mode of transport and take this EP with you. Linda Bugatti understands the best journeys need no destination. It’s all about the ride.
