A7S – Dumb [FFRR]

Fresh off of touring the world, the ‘Your Love 9PM’ Brit-nominated Swedish DJ/producer/singer-songwriter A7S returns with his anthemic new single ‘Dumb’, co-written with Tobias Danielsson (Noted) out on 14th July on FFRR. ‘Dumb’ is a high-energy dancefloor filler, with summery production, smooth electronic elements and a catchy hook. A7S’ powerful vocals propel the track over his brooding melodic techno production.  A7S has a total of 8 billion streams to date – including 2 billion for ‘Your Love (9pm)’, which was the 6th most played track on global radio in the year of its release. 

A7S – the stage name for Swedish producer and artist Alexander Tidebrink – likes to strike a balance between the light and dark. As a result, his music has a multi-layered edge. For example: On the one hand, the anthemic, sing-along hook on recent hit track ‘Nirvana’ is primed for strobe-lit unions in dark nightclubs. But strip back the dance-driven production however, and you land on a pensive song centred around a theme of being unwilling to give someone or something up. 

“I want people to listen to the songs if they’re happy and even if they’re sad,” he says. “You can put them on on a bad day, or put them on when you go to a rave with your friends.”
