Manpreet Kundi brings to her new single “unresolved” a level of emotional depth and detail even though it seems to come from a place of youthful infatuation. With spare and gentle guitar work and melancholic washes of synth and electronic strings, Kundi frames her song in which we hear moments of sensory memory that anchor feelings of love and affection in your mind like longing gazes, kisses on the neck and shared “frantic” heartbeats when together. But there is a suspicion that can’t be ignored that concludes each section of the song when Kundi realizes “You just won’t say a word.” The whole song Kundi sings of expressions of love and regard without getting them back the way you expect and thus you hear the hint of future heartbreak without them needing to be said because anyone that has felt similarly about anyone else in a similar situation recognizes that moment of realization even when you know your feelings were at least honest and genuine regardless of their reciprocation. Listen to “unresolved” on Spotify and follow Manpreet Kundi at the links below. Look out for Kundi’s forthcoming concept EP of which “unresolved” is a part.
