OK, so sometime during the damp fall of ‘11 two Swedish friends, Alexander Sjödin (Sailor & I) & Andreas Löf Hermansson - the duo that is Monde Ideal - file for a bank loan. Heads filled with nuevo electro and steps filled with bravado, they use their fresh pile of money to hire a string-band to help realize their first song: Future Waits. Safe to say is that the risk paid off, the result taking listeners on a journey through the difficulties of love, navigated from a bed of orchestral tones.
See, delusions of grandeur sometimes turn out to be simple self-reliance, as with Monde Ideal. And that’s what slowly becoming the duo’s essence, that refusal of compromise in their creations.
