The track is from the artist’s anticipated upcoming EP Uncanny Mountain.
Minneapolis-based composer, producer and multi-instrumentalist Benjamin Peterson, better known as Loon Booster, is an artist who has established himself as someone with a penchant for crafting sounds that feel unique and new while having a homely, familiar edge, experimenting deftly while never sacrificing on accessibility and an affable sense of endearment and charm.
The latest release from the artist is ‘Motion’, a fun and energetic track that encapsulates this idea. The track adds a plethora of unique elements to its alt-folk presentation but the heartbeat of the sound lies within its incessant catchiness and sense of wonder and fun. Everything from the track’s gorgeous synths to the crisp guitars seems to pull together to cultivate a mood that feels warm and nice, in spite of lyrics that center around themes of people growing apart and being set in their ways. ‘Motion’ is a really stellar track that does exactly what the artist sets out to do, reinventing and expanding upon a style of music without stripping away the values and appeal of it that makes it so beloved.
