Created in close collaboration with fellow songwriter and producer Eli Koskoff, Olivia Morreale\\u2019s \\u2018SPACE DREAMS\\u2019 EP is an electrifying\\xa0listen\\xa0from start to finish. Olivia revolts against genre limitations, drawing from a myriad of influences ranging from classic jazz to electronica, alt-R&B to 70s-era funk, and soul to bedroom pop, while still crafting a\\xa0unique soundscape all of her own. Lyrically, the EP examines the ways in which escapism can be accessed through imagination and dreams, mirroring the soothing, dreamy production that underscores each song. \\u201cThe overarching theme of dreams allowed us to explore through music those deeper subconscious thoughts that are sometimes difficult to address in everyday life\\xa0and to create a space for exploration and imagination,"\\xa0Olivia says.
