Stockholm's MIYNT daydreams of 007 on “Vacation With Bond In South Of France, Pt. 2”
A few years back, MIYNT was one of the most exciting artists in Stockholm, releasing lush, smooth pop music with a taste for orchestral flourish. Since then, there’s been a curious silence from her, but she's making a strong return with her suave comeback single “Vacation With Bond In South Of France, Pt. 2”.
MIYNT's new cut of “riviera pop” serves as a gloriously-detailed, luxurious track with a chorus like champagne waves hitting golden sands. The track's explanation perhaps sheds light on why there’s been a two-year wait for new music...
“I’ve always been inspired by early Bond movie theme music,” says MIYNT, “so I wrote a synopsis for a Bond movie that never existed. The movie begins at a space station in the late '60s where people (the bad guys) are doing experiments on space monkeys and then a lot of action plays out that I can't reveal, though one thing I can say is that Bond goes on vacation to France two times in the film. I wrote all the music for this fake Bond movie but this is the only track that made it on this EP, which is about Bond's second trip to south of France."
“Vacation With Bond…” does sound like a song fit for its purpose: a soundtrack to eyebrow-raising, smart-suited action in the sun.
