Indie Innovator Olovson shares ‘UNTANGLE’ single

Following the success of his debut album Storytelling, Swedish-born, LA-based composer and producer Olovson returns with a powerful new statement: UNTANGLE, the title track from his forthcoming album, arriving October 24 via his own imprint, 1136 Diamond. The first single released off the album, ‘THINGS I COULD’VE LEFT BEHIND’, already received support from the esteemed NPR Music, KCRW and KEXP 90.3 FM.

Known for his emotive piano compositions and Grammy-winning productions for artists like Frank OceanDua Lipa, and Mark RonsonOlovson now opens a more personal chapter — with his own voice at the center for the first time.

‘UNTANGLE’ is restrained yet resonant — a piece driven by deep, pulsating sub-bass, the quiet rhythm of footsteps, and Olovson’s delicate, intimate and effortless falsetto. The track unfolds like a meditation, filled with emotional contrast — shadow and light, grief and release.

“This song is about untangling the emotions and patterns you carry — and realizing you’re allowed to let go — and coming out on the other side feeling more at peace,” says Olovson.

This is the second single following his 2022 debut album Storytelling, which gathered 3 million streams across platforms, and received praise from Rolling Stone IndiaWonderland MagazineCLASHPopMattersBBC Radio 6NTS, and more. His track ‘Books Are Flying’ was featured in the SHOWTIMEseries The Man Who Fell to Earth, while the visual for Gyroscope was nominated at multiple BAFTA-qualifying film festivals including EncountersLondon Short Film Festival, and LIFA.
