Swedish collective Pink Butter are set to release their debut EP Can We Go Back on August 1st through DeepMatter Records. Known for their live, improvisational approach, the outfit of Oskar Bettinsoli (guitar), Björn Lehnert (keys), Malte Bergman (bass), and John Bjurström (drums) blends jazz, hip-hop, and soul into a sound that feels both fluid and groove-focused. Featuring guest appearances from T3 of Slum Village and Jermaine Holmes (D’Angelo), Can We Go Back explores both personal and collective themes. The band comments:

“We made our songs by simply playing together live in the studio, giving as much of ourselves as possible to the music. In an age where digital perfection is easy to achieve, we chose to embrace the human side of music. It’s about capturing the raw energy of the moment—just like the jazz records we love—but infused with the modern collaboration and vibe of today’s hip-hop and soul. It’s a balance between the timelessness of improvisation and the innovation of contemporary music.”

Final single ‘U’ closes the upcoming EP on a high. Featuring Venus Anon and Jermaine Holmes, the track is a lush, bass-heavy slice of neo-soul, full of warmth, groove, and emotion. Here it is.
