New Barry Can't Swim Album 'Loner' Out Now
Barry Can't Swim, one of the most exciting electronic artists in the world, releases his new album 'Loner', out today on Ninja Tune.
'Loner' is an intricate, carefully crafted project that finds Barry Can't Swim pushing the boundaries of his own sound. Throughout the twelve tracks, we journey with him as he navigates and explores the world he's found himself in, making for a highly personal album that asks profound questions of its creator and his audience. From the intense opening of 'The Person You'd Like To Be' to the ambience of the closing track 'Wandering Mt. Moon,' the record remains grounded in his roots while furthering himself as a producer, songwriter, and key force in the electronic space.
The album release follows a number of impressive tracks that received early acclaim. 'All My Friends' showcased Barry Cant Swim's production prowess and followed double singles 'About to Begin,' a pulsing, fast-paced track and 'Cars Pass By Like Childhood Sweethearts,' a softer juxtaposition. Collaborative single 'Kimpton' with O'Flynn was named one of Billboard's best new electronic tracks of the week, while 'Different,' a heady slice of electronic euphoria, has become a fan-favorite at recent shows. First album single 'The Person You'd Like To Be' finds the artist moving in a new abstract direction. 'Loner' has received widespread praise so far from Rolling Stone UK, Clash, DJ Mag, The Times, The Skinny and more.
