"but I'll wreck your heart"
Tempest by Netherlands' Youth Reserve has a vast sound. The song rides on percolating guitar rhythms, floating synths that flood in surprising ways, a mid tempo swaying beat and Silvian Ilgen's sultry croon. There is a sense of 80's romance wave infused with funk, with soul. I can't help but think of artists like Bryan Ferry (Roxy Music) and even a tinge of (mid- 80's) David Bowie. Youth Reserve come from a similar place aesthetically, that place were you dress up to perform your art and that art takes you to an elevated place. Their immersive sound moves and woos you.
Youth Reserve hail from the town of Arnhem and are Silvian Ilgen (vocals, guitarist) and multi instrumentalist Sonam Plomp, The melancholy pop of Tempest is there first single from their upcoming EP called "Tides" (no release date as of yet).
The Official Video was shot in Charleroi, Belgium as directed and shot by Silvian Ilgen & Esben Sandviken and starring Nicky Roding.

In the harsh winter of 2016, two musicians meet in a worn out studio. Numbed by the cold wind that had almost blown them off the adjacent quay, they warm their hands by the old stove and plug in their instruments. The musical interplay that follows reflects the melancholy of the surrounding port in the snow, but at the same time breathes hopeful resistance. Youth Reserve is born.
Consisting of vocalist and guitarist Silvian Ilgen and multi instrumentalist Sonam Plomp, Youth Reserve's melancholic, yet hopeful synth-pop is inspired by bands such as Future Islands, Talk Talk and Arcade Fire. Hailing from the city of Arnhem, they first met in 2016 and underwent several stylistic changes before settling on their current sound. T
