Genre-bending New York City-based collective Monotronic is back with an irresistible single, ”Buy Yourself a Dream.” It’s a dose of reality set to a tune, an acknowledgment of groundhog day, and a gentle reminder to keep pursuing what you care about.
“Buy Yourself a Dream,” with its acute, relatable storytelling, delves behind the photographed glow of aspiration to reveal the frustration of dead-end jobs and the nagging pull of nostalgia. The lyrics are relatable and specific, with the memory of nights on the road alone in the rain, the weight of each day that passes, and the affected ballet between dreams and creature comforts.
Monotronic glues together a fusion of styles, giving the track an inviting, thought-provoking energy. The melody absorbs, the chorus adheres, and you’re singing along in your world before you know it. It’s a song that says something, not just in the background. Now out through CEN, “Buy Yourself a Dream” is a reminder that time stops for no one. Whether running in circles or sprinting toward your goals, Monotronic urges you to take that leap before the moment is gone.
