Harmony Dreamers is excited to unveil its latest masterpiece, the single entitled “Spinning Round The Sun.” This three-part composition is part of the band’s debut album, “I Come From Earth.” Despite the challenges posed by the COVID pandemic, the group’s leader, Byron Lee Scott, was able to write, record, and mix the track in the comfort of his solar-powered mobile studio unit.

Critics and fans alike have lauded the music of Harmony Dreamers as a unique and unparalleled work of art. Honk Magazine, in particular, has praised the band’s sound, calling it a “never-before-seen” creation. The group’s music has garnered over 200,000 Spotify streams, a testament to the band’s growing popularity and influence in the music industry.

Byron Lee Scott says, “During Covid, I bought a travel trailer, set up a studio inside it, and learned to live off grid on propane and solar power. I stayed in remote areas of Arizona and California, and finally, in Nevada, where the album was mastered at The Hideout Studios in Las Vegas.”

“Spinning Round The Sun” is a mesmerizing, synth-heavy pop song that celebrates the wonder of life on Earth and the love the earth receives from the Sun. As part of a larger trilogy, the song serves as the first part of a larger story that explores the connections between space, love, and the human experience. The second part, “Loving The Sun,” offers a more cinematic interpretation of the theme, while part 3, “Solar Rays” presents an electronic dance instrumental version.

“The Sun is blazing through space at about 500,000 miles per hour, and the Earth follows in a spiral path at the perfect distance. I think it’s miraculous!” exclaims Scott. “It’s wondrous and humbling when you become aware of the vast universe. It’s a feeling there is something much bigger than ourselves.”

The Spinning round the Sun trilogy of songs, with its many layers of synthesizers and vocals were almost entirely performed by Byron Scott. Drummer and long-time band mate Larry Dragland adds drum kit grooves to Scott’s many-layered percussion tracks, along with Perm, Russia-based Anna V’s vocals. All the orchestrations, synth bass, and the myriad of electronic sounds were performed by Scott on Guitar Synthesizer.

“Dry Land” by Songbird evokes a metaphorical anthem of emotional entrapment

Songbird

Drawing inspiration from her fascination with sharks, Songbird immerses audiences, both thematically and sonically, into the intricate realms of manipulation and the unyielding experiences of personal struggle with her newest single, “Dry Land,” exuding an absolutely captivating melody. She cleverly employs these apex predators as a metaphor, symbolizing the emotional entrapment in an uncertain affair. However, the track goes beyond mere references to sharks and marine life; it explores the pursuit of conviction and purpose amid the fluctuating tides of doubt and the allure of dangerous forces beyond our control that threaten to pull us under.

The song addresses the subtle snares of toxic relationships, internal conflicts, or the weight of unspoken fears, providing an ample interpretive framework for listeners to connect with the lyricism. “Dry Land” is characterized by a haunting yet melodic vibe, propelled by Songbird’s emotive vocal delivery, which feels simultaneously delicate and fierce. Her performance suggests a personal familiarity with these challenges, offering a cautionary perspective on the perils of emotional turbulence. Lyrically, the song encapsulates the universal experience of indecision, navigating the complexities of uncertainty, latent strength, and the quest for clarity amidst chaos.

The production is atmospheric, underscored by a consistent tension that permeates the composition. Each beat feels intentional; the gradual builds mimic the rise and fall of crashing waves, while subtle electronic touches add an edge that mirrors the song’s darker themes. One can almost sense the encroaching sonic ocean, with every lyric resonating with vulnerability and poignancy, effectively portraying the dichotomy of the desire for liberation and the pull of deeper existential currents.

Notably, the emotional sincerity evident in each line exemplifies resilience. Songbird avoids convoluted messaging; her lyrics are brilliantly poetic, mood-oriented, and impactful. By allowing the metaphor to resonate naturally, she grants listeners the opportunity to immerse themselves in the narrative and extract their interpretations.

Dry Land” functions as a vital sonic lifeline for anyone grappling with their inner fears, particularly those who have ever felt manipulated, overwhelmed, or dragged down by something they couldn’t quite identify. While Songbird expresses an evident admiration for sharks, with this release, she demonstrates her adeptness at navigating the intricate emotional landscapes of the human experience.

Start Forward walks the reflective edge of emotion in his recent gem, “Tightrope”

Start Forward

Tightrope,” the newest single from Start Forward, the brainchild of Miami-based artist Joshua Sturtevant, offers a nuanced exploration of emotional stability and vulnerability, serving as a poignant representation of lived experience. Derived from the forthcoming album ‘Breathing Under Water,’ this track exhibits an introspective depth that significantly resonates strongly with the listener.

Musically, “Tightrope” embodies the tension inherent in the liminal space between control and chaos, effectively capturing the essence of emotional defenses that, although initially protective, have now become constricting. The production evokes a distinctly 90’s alt-rock aesthetic, drawing inspiration from influences such as Pearl Jam and Radiohead while simultaneously maintaining a unique sonic identity rooted in Sturtevant’s innovative approach: a fusion of haunting melodies and contemporary soundscapes.

The arrangement showcases a deliberate dynamic between tension and release, with gritty guitar lines oscillating between moments of restraint and cathartic expression. The vocal delivery, imbued with a palpable weariness, reinforces this thematic duality, fostering a personal yet universally relatable experience for the audience. The emotional fatigue articulated within the composition is not merely audible but felt deeply, inviting a profound engagement.

Sturtevant’s methodical approach to songwriting and production, as he manages all facets of the process independently, infuses the track with authenticity and intimacy. Each lyric emerges from a space of late-night introspection, embodying a moment of resignation where one yields to emotional currents. The chorus encapsulates the juxtaposition of fragility and strength, illustrating the experience of an individual on the verge of collapse yet finding resilience in vulnerability.

Tightrope” resonates with anyone grappling with the façade of composure amidst internal turmoil. It masterfully blends vulnerability and incisiveness, offering raw honesty without descending into melodrama. Start Forward doesn’t simply recount an experience; instead, he immerses the listener directly within its emotional landscape.
