about

Escapism 101 is the second song in the monthly series of singles - from the forthcoming Juju Wings album Hello Friends!

It's a dreamy, poppy, whimsical calling to an unspecified partner to enlist on an adventure. The sampled ambient tones & high-pitched melodies combine to convey a departure from real-life; inviting the listener to reminisce over past pleasures and to experience new memories together.

The references to MGMT, Animal Collective create a comforting familiarity to the song which wouldn't be out of place on the next Pendleton Ward animation (Midnight Gospel, Adventure Time).

Hailing from Cardiff but their minds have wondered all over the place, Rhodri & Niu wrote the album around Northern Europe in 2019 and recorded in Cardiff with some of Cardiff music's hall-of-famers.

The video was shot during happy times on the Pacific islands of Tahiti (Tahiti, Moorea & Fakarava) during the Hokulea festival in 2017.

The Escapism 101 song & video will be available on the website

and the other regular platforms from 1st June 2020

lyrics

We could be week-end warriors
Don’t miss out on the trip

Make some beats
Pretty thing, hello there, how’s it been?

And the silence of the night
goes too quick
Memories made, are hard to fade
let it be the way it is

We sit on the side, waiting
for a sign or a thought to share
bring it to life tell a story
that makes us feel like kids again
Kids again

We could be week-end warriors
Don’t miss out on the trip

Make some beats
Pretty thing, hello there how’s it been
