Since he began to record music as a teenager : :' (his father put him behind a drum set when he was 4), slow ': ,: hasnÆt been his preferred speed. Writing and performing songs :, : filled with gritty guitar and driving rhythms that snap like a : :' live wire, heÆs been busy channelling the electric drive of ': ,: youth, creating brief, flashing sonic portraits of his life in :, : Aarhus, the countryÆs gritty, industrial second city. : :' ': ,: That makes the music on the reflective A Youthful Dream, the :, : debut album from Yung, such a revelation. Angst makes space for : :' wisdom, youthful exuberance begins channelling road-tested ': ,: experience, and a blur of basement shows and self-produced :, : bromides becomes something more. DIY doesnÆt mean unrefined, it : :' just means personal. And at a point where inertia made way for ': ,: introspection, Silkjµr showcased a new degree of songwriting :, : craft and and sonic experimentation, and a new perspective on : :' everyday life and young adulthood. ': ,: :, : ôI didnÆt think a lot about what was going to happen with those : :' earlier songs, I just wanted to create and talk about my life,ö ': ,: he says. ôThis time, it was all about the process.ö :, : : :' Where the previous releases such as These Thoughts Are Like ': ,: Mandatory Chores found Silkjµr masterfully running through :, : buzzsaw riffs, recalling The Replacements and Jay Reatard, A : :' Youthful Dream finds Silkjµr reshaping his DIY vocabulary and ': ,: experimenting with a larger sonic palette, in ways that may make :, : fans do a double take. Richer melodies, pianos, and even : :' trumpets made their way into the recording sessions at Sound ': ,: Studio in Sweden, where Silkjµr, Frederik Nybo Veile (drums) and :, : Tobias Guldborg Tarp (bass) decamped with a handful of guest : :' musicians. Consider the airy, self-referential ôThe Child,ö a ': ,: reverie or languid guitar lines punctuated by a horn line; the :, : mid-tempo swagger of ôUncombed Hair,ö suddenly amping up without : :' losing control; or the slow build of ôThe Hatch,ö its anthemic ': ,: scope and chugging drums lines showing a new compositional :, : mastery without losing the immediacy and energy of past efforts. : :' ': ,: :, : Coming from a musical family in the punk rock capital of : :' Denmark, Mikkel rejected any musical involvement at first, ': ,: essentially not wanting to be like his dad. As the punk prodigy :, : became more and more a part of the local sceneùdeveloping an : :' admiration for local cult legends Cola Freaks, playing in Urban ': ,: Achievers and Happy Hookers For Jesus, creating a cottage :, : industry for local bands via his Shordwood Records label, and : :' finally recording as Yungùhis songwriting skills grew, ': ,: maintaining the feverish energy while perhaps losing some of the :, : child¡like carefreeness of the past. After more than a decade of : :' writing songs (he's now 21), heÆs grown bored with other ': ,: peopleÆs perception of what ôpunkö means, and his ambitions and :, : songwriting have evolved. Always on the move and in the moment, : :' Silkjµr has created a musical step forward, while pausing to ': ,: consider and reflect on the past. :, : : :' ôFor me, Yung has always equalled total freedom,ö says Mikkel. ': ,: ôI donÆt want Yung to be a band that you can put certain labels :, : on. I wish for it to be a project that can principally go in any : :' given directionö.
