On “I Know What I Saw,” the new track by David J Boswell, he takes a daring risk that marks a wide turn into something sharp but sure in his creative journey. Boswell’s minimal disco style is sleek, but here he deliberately slows things down, swapping the dance-floor shimmer for dark, quiet unease.
“I Know What I Saw” is built on electronics and acoustic alternative folk, but grounded in a strong blues influence that gives the song a sturdy, human center. The blend of natural noises and gentle electronic sounds creates an eerie backdrop that works with the track’s general obsession with staring up at the sky and stories of UFO abductions in Sheffield.
The song gradually reveals an experience that remains mysterious even as it feels fiercely personal. The music is reflective, as if taking a moment to contemplate what it has witnessed and what it could mean. The blues influence adds weight and emotional depth to the music, bringing that otherworldly subject matter down to earth. This is an indication of how far Boswell has come as an artist, willing to experiment without losing spirituality.
“I Know What I Saw” is a track from the forthcoming album “Going Down Slow” due by January 19th, 2026. It feels like an essential bridge between the past and the future, and it’s a daring reintroduction that suggests Boswell is unafraid to step out of his comfort zone in search of more interesting stories. Here, he unlocks the door to something more profound, odder, and quietly extraordinary.
