Sasha & The Bear – Easy On Your Mind

 Brooklyn’s Sasha & The Bear (aka Sasha Daniel and Dov Igel) return with a dreamy new single today, called ‘Easy On Your Mind’.

The track is lifted from the collaborators’ debut EP, and treats listeners to a shimmering fusion of indie and electronic pop. The sound feels almost meditative in essence, so as to mirror the song’s beautiful lyrical concept:

“‘Easy on Your Mind’ is about introspection, acceptance of the unknown, and finding solace in the present moment. It signifies a desire to be still and fully immerse oneself in the experience, seeking a moment of calm and contemplation. Life is filled with mysterious elements that unfold at their own pace, and instead of rushing or forcefully trying to decipher them, they should be accepted and embraced.”

Sasha & The Bear have consistently impressed us with their ability to create productions that are distinct and future-forward in character, yet also powerfully emotive and sincere in tone.

Sasha & The Bear – Wake Me Up

Sasha & The Bear is the collaborative project of Brooklyn artists Sasha Daniel and Dov Igel, who have been crafting sounds since their formation in 2016.

Upon Igel’s mother’s recent passing, the duo decided to travel to the wilderness of Sweden’s forests to work on a collection of introspective songs that were inspired by themes of mortality and loss.

The experience resulted in a 3-song EP, of which new single ‘Wake Me Up’ is lifted. Lyrically, the track addressees the feelings that we can experience when someone close to us is gone, as the duo explain:

“It’s a reminder that we’re all mortals and that our time on this planet is limited – it’s a song about learning to live with the loss and embrace all the feelings that come with it and mostly to learn how to keeping on going with the loss side by side.”
