SEVEN LIONS REVEALS THAT 2020 WAS “DEMOTIVATING” FOR HIS CAREER – [READ]

Seven Lions shares in a social media post that this past year has been extremely tough on his creative process but that the block resulted in a “Rush Over Me” remix and a forthcoming trance EP via Ophelia.

In a heartfelt Instagram post, the artist explains, “2020 was a strange and honestly really demotivating year for me. I was having a hard time feeling inspired and creative in the studio so I decided to just do some musical therapy and make old school trance remixes of some of my older tracks. I had a great time making these songs. They have a nostalgic vibe for me and it made me remember how much I love the process of making music, especially with zero expectations. It definitely worked and has brought me a lot of focus and I’ve been really happy just being at home and making loads of music that I’m excited to share with you down the line. For now I hope these songs bring you as much joy as they brought me!”
