San Mei's "Wonder" is a melting pot of heavy guitar riffs and relentless energy
After capturing widespread attention with the release of her debut EP back in 2017, San Mei returns with a song that is brimming with tantalising energy and a swaggering, strutting brilliance.
"Wonder" is a song that is fuelled by fuzzy dream-like haziness and a pounding, assertive energy that explores the moment of instant attraction and all the day dreaming that can follow.
The heavy, scuzzed guitar riffs are reminiscent of The Kills or Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, but her fluttering, high octane vocals lighten the whole feeling of the song and ultimately heighten the 'cloud nine' nature of "Wonder" as a whole.
"It’s about that classic butterfly moment you get when someone unknown to you captures your attention, and you’re not sure why," Explains San Mei, who is also known as Emily Hamilton in day-to-day reality, continuing "It’s that person becoming a daydream to you, wondering who they are, what they’re about, and not necessarily wanting them to become anything more than some intoxicating illusion.”
The sonic power track lays the groundwork for San Mei's upcoming EP which is due to be released later this year.
