Swedish synth-pop quartet, Little Dragon today unveil their latest single “Are You Feeling Sad?” featuring none other than Grammy nominated vocalist Kali Uchis, out via Ninja Tune. With vocals from frontwoman Yukimi Nagano along with the multi-talented instrumentalists Håkan Wirenstarnd, Fredrik Wallin and Erik Bodin, the track arrives ahead of their forthcoming studio album New Me, Same Us making its entrance on Friday, March 27.
Crafting dreamy electro overtones well-known from the Gothenburg-based four-piece, “Are You Feeling Sad?” folds their signature sound effortlessly with Kali’s vocals. Captivating listeners from the first beat the undeniably infectious track touches on themes of not worrying too much and care-free sentiments weaving through the delicate electronic synths and percussion textures. Having lent their own inimitable sound to many high-profile collaborations over the years—including Gorillaz, Mac Miller, Flying Lotus, BADBADNOTGOOD, SBTRKT, Flume, KAYTRANADA, Big Boi, De La Soul and many more—it is not often that they open up their own tracks to outside influences, with Kali becoming one of only a handful of featured artists appearing on their own productions.
Speaking on the single: “We are super excited Kali features on this track.” say the band, “all of a sudden at the end of last year, this version appeared in our emails like a beautiful Christmas gift. She put her twist on it and gave the track an amazing energy. Did we mention we also love her?!”
Bursting onto the scene in 1996, Little Dragon have continued to impress with their timeless and ever-evolving grooves that leave listeners returning back for more. Their ability to fluidly change their sound from record to record has resulted in a sound notoriously hard to pin down, which has gained them a well-earned reputation. Equally, their stage presence has brought unforgettable memories for millions around the globe, performing on some of the world’s most revered festivals such as Coachella, Glastonbury, Bestival, Lollapolooza, Melt over their decade-spanning touring career.

Gaining the support for their first single from the album, “Hold On” from the likes of Double J, SYN and 2SER to name a few, “Are You Feeling Sad?” proves that Little Dragon eclectic talents are not slowing down. Unveiling a euphonious collaboration with Kali Uchis, “Are You Feeling Sad” will be an exclusive single release from the four-piece outfit, so be sure to rinse and repeat on its feel-good energy before the full length arrives at the end of March.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
