"The captivating cover photo by Fey Willbrandt sets the tone for an EP that seamlessly connects to her previous achievements. The lead single, "Ich hasse, wenn", introduced Amelie to a wider audience, making waves across various playlists, including Fresh Finds GSA. This track features alongside six other songs in the EP, showcasing her delicate arrangements and engaging storytelling that explore themes of embarking on new journeys, vulnerability, and self-discovery."
"The seven tracks on the EP represent seven clouds, symbolising both the quest for self and the nuances of relationships with others. Amelie likens life to a card game; some days deal favourable cards, while others align with the more challenging "Zwischen 1 und 7." Throughout her music, her gentle voice serves as the constant thread, juxtaposed against breaking synths and distorted drums, creating a distinct sound that straddles the realms of bedroom pop and indie lightness."
