"take your precious time to get your eyes over to my place..."
Gato Blanco is the dreampop project / monkier of musician, music producer, and radio dj Kobe Greenawalt and one of his latest incarnations "your love is pain", featuring Ian Fredrickson and Alex Dewell, exquisitely blends lo-fi tones expressed in machine beats and dense rushed emotionality woven into the vocal aesthetic, voices becoming one and sitting perfectly in a pocket of synths and pushed guitar notes. It is the flood of harmonies and vox that (for me) give this track (that flies by) it's weight. It can feel anxious at times, drenched in reflective melancholia, "your love is pain and I'm the stone", but so pretty too.
Kobe shares:
"This song is about how love can cause one to experience so much euphoria that one will crave for more before it becomes unsatisfied to a point where it hurts itself and eventually taps back into reality, thus restarting the cycle. Also covers when you feel like you’re out of control with everything around you and you just want things to go back to normal. Having a nostalgic feel of the past."

As I listen over and over again, picking bits of sad reflections to construct the song's poetry one line at a time, I realize even more how special this song is.
