Danish folk artist Dupont is back with "Summer's Song," a beautiful track from his new EP, "Vice Versa," which is full of warmth, simplicity, and emotion. Built on the songwriting of Mikkel Harding Hintze, Dupont is a modern folk gem that comes across as traditional and immediate.
"Summer's Song" is handmade, every note chipped out of memory. Dupont's intuitive interplay only compounds the magic, and this light touch of guitar and vocal creates an atmosphere that proves to be both bright and mellow. While "Summer's Song" works wonders on its own, it soars even higher within the EP's lush tapestry, a body of work that pays homage to the timeless beauty of folk while embracing just the right amount of modernity.
Other tracks from the EP, such as "Aviao" and "If You Go," resonate with a calm, emotionally toned sound, while "Mellos" and "Night Terrors" venture into the group's cinematic and experimental side. On "Summer's Song," an age-old meditation on the transience of life, joy and sadness intertwine in poignant wonderment. It's not just a song to listen to, but one to feel, and it's an urgent balm that reminds you that the most significant artistry lies in simplicity, not complexity in connection.
