Blooy says about his latest work: “’School is out’ takes you back to your childhood. Reminiscing the moment when the last school bell rang, and freedom beckoned. For one child it meant six weeks of sheer joy, while the other had to cope with difficult home situations or prolonged loneliness.”
Blooy captures this mood in his distinctive style of writing and producing music. This time it’s a blend of lo-fi and grungy vibes. “School is out” slows down time, just like the first weeks of the holidays never seemed to end. With a touch of carelessness mixed with melancholy, the music takes you on a trip down memory lane. Almost forgotten by some, but for others fresh in their memory like it was yesterday.
