Sassy 009 teams up with Malaysian-Irish producer and singer yunè pinku for her final single of the year. “Mirrors”.

Mirrors is a shimmering downtempo track with yunè pinku lucidly deploying daisy-fresh vocals into the track, as Lindgård confronts a recurring dream where “you can't tell where the way out is – you just see different angles of yourself.” Dreamer+ is to be released January 16 via HEAVEN-SENT / [PIAS].

After finding early acclaim with 2017’s Do You Mind EP, Sassy 009 later evolved into a more rock-influenced project, exploring with live instruments and pop melodies through a string of mixtapes, including KILL SASSY 009 (2019) and Heart Ego (2021). Dreamer+ is Sassy 009’s true debut: a concept-driven album pieced together from nearly four years of studio effort, and an ambitious attempt to take complete control of her artistry.

Steered by freshly distorted vocals and elements of grunge, shoegaze, ‘90s beatronica and gauzy hyperpop, the album is a record of self-discovery and self-effacement at once, Dreamer+ is work of fiction at its core, a grim fairytale in which dreams and emotions are processed through a landscape of shapeshifting characters, dark forces and moral responsibilities.

The album features Blood Orange, yunè pinku and BEA1991.

It’s an album Lindgård has imagined for years and has taken on many forms, shapes and sizes. Like those morphing silhouettes you see at nighttime, this distinctive body of work has been an ever-evolving assimilation of disciplines. Its final form is a crystallising constellation of connected works - a bricolage of thought, feeling, and creative desire.

Each element offers a familiar entry point into the same underlying themes: identity, memory, and the shifting boundaries of self - where the dreamer is the only witness / only one who remembers.
