If you’re a fan of dreamy indie-pop (and let’s face it, who isn’t?) then you’ll be pleased to learn of emerging South Korean-Australian artist Munan.
Stylistically similar to the likes of Tame Impala and Parcels, Munan constructs beautifully emotive and melodic fusions of mellow disco, indie-pop and surf-rock.
As the title to his new single suggests, ‘Freak Like Me’ encourages listeners to embrace their individuality and realise that it’s OK to be weird.
“The main catalyst for starting the track was when I came across a reel-to-reel tape machine being sold in my area. I wanted to give my new music its own distinct sound, so I bought the tape machine and started playing with it. My friend Sterling Silver came around to my home studio and we started toying with some ideas, which ended up becoming ‘Freak Like Me’. Using tape to create the track was a special experience and has definitely helped me to craft my own sound as a new artist. The song is about me coming to accept that being weird is okay and that there is someone out there who will love me for who I am.”
