It’s always a fun enigma diving into a new track whose title is a host of letters that probably form an acronym. Johnny Stimson’s new song is the latest to come our way in such a fashion. And if you surmised that IDWLY stands for “I don’t wanna love you” before you listened to the song, you’re absolutely, astutely correct. While we’ve fallen in love to the singer songwriter from Texas and his glossy soulful funk countless times, IDWLY brings us a more gooey pop side to his sonic artistry, with crisp glitchy permutations and slivers of that sleek gliding funk. The single also features vibrant electronic synths, minimalistic instrumentation, and smoky vocals. Unbeknownst to us despite our ardent features over the last few years, Elton John is a big fan of Johnny Stimson. He’s been supporting Stimson’s music since discovering him. Johnny Stimson draws from influences as diverse as The Beatles, Tom Misch, Sam Cooke, and Frank Ocean to bring a distinct sense of soul to pop music. New single IDWLY is for anyone who's ever been caught between their head and their heart. Listen to him on Spotify, here.
