Heart on a Sleeve in a Share House Dream

From the first hazy chord, Ratfink!’s “About Ya” wraps you in a soft, shimmering hug of dream pop sincerity. Liv and Raph, the Brunswick duo recording out of their shared house, aren’t just making tunes—they’re capturing snapshots of feeling, and this one hits right where it counts.

“About Ya” drifts in gently, built on jangly guitars, lo-fi textures, and a kind of handmade warmth that makes it feel like a love song passed across the table at breakfast. The shared vocals—delicate, intertwined—carry the emotional weight effortlessly. There’s an ache here, but also comfort. Like remembering someone you miss, and smiling at the memory.

It’s the kind of song that doesn’t beg for attention. It just plays, and quietly pulls you in. The lyrics hold their cards close, sketching out longing in fragments, and trusting you to fill in the rest. You can tell this wasn’t over-produced—it was felt, then recorded. That honesty gives it staying power.

As a first taste of WHEN U WERE MINE, “About Ya” suggests that Ratfink! is crafting something special—something reflective, intimate, and grounded in lived experience. It’s a song for everyone who’s ever had someone they can’t quite forget.
