Mary Mi - 'Save Time'
Swedish artist and producer Mary Mi vibrantly reflects on living in a society always in a rush to ‘Save Time’ on current ironic indie pop song.
Mary Mi paints from a colourful and vivid synth palette on ‘Save Time’, that sees her blissful vocal lightly guide its listener through thought-provoking lyrics addressing the pressures we put on ourselves to try and save time as she explains:
”We ́re saving up for a few more vacation days, trying to use our time more efficiently by squeezing in one more lunch meeting while tasting blood when we ́re running to catch the early bus home; all this just to save a bit of time. What do we do with all this time and what difference does it make?”
While the track moves with a playful, robust, fluidity, which is wholly infectious on its hook - Mary Mi also strips back to slower, more minimal arrangements, guiding affecting tones in and out of the track with a meticulous hand, leaving its listener feeling fully thrilled.
