The best-kept secret of the Belgian music scene, The Me In You, is back with a new record, and it doesn't come a second too soon.
In a society where people are increasingly labeled and put into boxes, the Duitse Ida Fischer no longer feels at home. She is not tormented, does not waver mentally, and has no need for popularity; she lives without a label and without feeling for the world as it is today. A radical choice remains for her: she disappears from society and starts a new life, in her own way. Ida Fischer is nobody.
This concept forms the heart of the fifth album of The Me In You. Just like The Music of Stuart Conroy from 2018, a fictional character is central, and all songs revolve around the second life of Ida Fischer.
From dreamy indie pop to melancholic ambient fragments and sharp distortion lines: the band never sounded more adventurous and at the same time so coherent. Tracks like Bring The Beat Back – a song that TV chef Jeroen Meus used as the opening theme for Dagelijkse Kost – show the perfect balance between melancholy and rhythm.
Live, all those layers really come into their own: hypnotic grooves, dreamy soundscapes, and immersive melodies fill the hall. The Me In You takes you on stage: every moment counts, every detail touches.
The Me In You balances effortlessly between melancholy and adventurous soundscapes and always manages to hit that edge where you keep listening and always discover something new.
