LÖNA releases Berlin-sounding new single 'Game'
On November 3rd, identical twin sisters Madelon (songwriter) and Danielle (producer) released their long-awaited single, 'Game.' This track signifies a remarkable comeback after nearly three years of dedicated effort, during which they have refined their artistic vision and cultivated a fresh sound. What makes this new release truly distinctive is the infusion of Berlin's underground techno elements into their dark pop song. Featuring an electrifying four-to-the-floor beat, deep basslines, and large reverbing vocals.
LÖNA also incorporates samples from the casino in this new song. Because the song lyrics take you on a journey to a romantic evening at the casino, where the excitement of an early date filled with uncertainty and anticipation takes center stage. To capture the right vibe for 'Game', the twin sisters sought inspiration by visiting a casino, which was a first for them. They sampled the sounds of a rolling roulette ball on the wheel and a card flick as a snare. The twin sisters returned home not only with inspiration but also with a modest win of 12 euros.

lyrics

I’m at the table with Black Jack
You are at roulette
I told you black
But you’ve put it all on red
I’ll let you spin the wheel
It’s all on red

I try to understand you
Try not to lose my mind
I try to understand you
Try not to lose my mind

I like this game too much
You’re dangerous, ahah
I like this game too much
You’re dangerous, ahah

Whiskey on the rocks
I own the queen of hearts
Love to play this game of cards
A penny for your thoughts
I want to call your bluff
No you don’t show your cards

I try to understand you
Try not to lose my mind
I try to understand you
Try not to lose my mind

I like this game too much
You’re dangerous, ahah
I like this game too much
You’re dangerous, ahah

And I hate losing
I hate losing
I hate losing, I
I hate losing
I hate losing
I hate losing, I
I hate losing
I hate losing
I hate losing, I
I hate losing

I try to understand you
Try not to lose my mind
I try to understand you
Try not to lose my mind

I like this game too much
You’re dangerous, ahah
I like this game too much
You’re dangerous, ahah
I like this game too much
You’re dangerous, ahah
I like this game too much
You’re dangerous, ahah

LÖNA Utrecht, Netherlands

Identical twin sisters went on a trip to Iceland at the end of 2018. They fell right in place with the cold and dark Scandinavian landscapes, hence the northern-sounding band name which means "valuable" in Swedish. The dutch twins are inspired by northern acts such as Björk, Vök and Tove Lo. The dark synthpop of LÖNA is uniquely defined by icy synth sounds and wide reverbing guitars. ... more
