Saw You in a Dream is the fourth extended play by English indie pop act the Japanese House, released on 30 June 2017 through Dirty Hit.
It was preceded by Swim Against the Tide, and was followed by her debut album Good at Falling, released 1 March 2019.
[6] The EP includes a combination of 80s-esque synth beats, acoustic guitars, layered vocals, and melancholic lyrics.
[13][14] Nicole Almeida of Atwood Magazine positively reviewed the EP, commenting that Bain "talks about love, friendship, loss, and life through mesmerizing and descriptive lyrics which, when coupled with her hypnotizing melodies, result in honest and heartwarming songs.
[17] Joshua Palmer gave a mixed review for Spectrum Culture, on the one hand praising its composition and combination of 80's synthpop with more laidback, minimalistic harmonies, while also criticising both Bain's reluctance to release a full length album and a lack of development between Saw You in a Dream and Bain's previous releases.
