With You” is a gripping track released today from thirdcurl, the project of multi-instrumentalist Gabriel Bødker Johnson, featured last month with the track “ordinary life.” “With You” sports a dark, synth-tinged turn just prior to the one-minute mark that fully impresses, showing the artist’s atmospheric chops early on. “With You” is an engrossing success from thirdcurl and collaborator Casper Iskov.
“One of the first songs I made myself was a song called ‘with you’ in 2011,” Gabriel says. “It was a complete copy of a traditional deadmau5 track. I put it on youtube because I was simply so proud to have made my own electronic track.” Fast forward to 2019, and the track has a new life, after Casper reached out to Gabriel. Casper loved the track’s early mix, and contributed lyrics to this new iteration. Thus, “With You” marks the first collaboration between thirdcurl (Gabriel” and Casper.
“Casper & I moved in together in an old house outside of Copenhagen together with Emil Klitsgaard, who helped me do the cover for the track, and Andreas Frandsen whom plays bass with me on stage,” Gabriel says. “During this time Casper & I sat down and finally managed to finish the track in 2018. 7 years it took to finish ‘with you’. We’re very proud of the track, as it features the same lyrics he wrote back then and because it still features the main elements of what I’d made so many years ago. But above all ‘with you’ played a part of us becoming friends.”
