“Shining Far Away” by The Domi illuminates the anthemic skyline brimming possibilities
The Domi, the solo project of Paris-based Dominique Lemaire, returns with a quietly dazzling new single, “Shining Far Away.” This infectious indie pop track beautifully balances heartfelt intimacy with a shimmering, upbeat energy, opening a window to an optimistic sunrise filled with possibilities.

Lemaire’s vocals are warm and earnest, carrying a sense of vulnerability wrapped in hope. The song’s tempo pulses with a contagious rhythm that invites you to move, yet it never loses that delicate, ethereal touch that sets The Domi apart from many in the indie pop scene. You can hear echoes of inspiration from Metronomy’s playful synths, Tame Impala’s dreamy vibes, and the Strokes’ melodic punch, but Lemaire makes it uniquely his own through subtle acoustic textures and thoughtful production choices crafted entirely in his home studio.
What’s compelling about “Shining Far Away” is its emotional honesty wrapped in a fresh, modern soundscape. It’s a track about resilience and finding your inner light amidst uncertainty, something that resonates deeply without feeling preachy. Whether you’re adding to an indie pop playlist or simply seeking a luminous gem to uplift a quiet moment, The Domi’s latest offering is a radiant beacon.
With its memorable melodies and uplifting spirit, “Shining Far Away” reinforces Dominique Lemaire’s reputation as a self-taught artist, songwriter, and producer unafraid to embrace vulnerability. He masterfully blends introspection with accessibility, creating music that feels both like a comforting friend and an energizing spark. His expanding catalog and artistic evolution speak volumes, promising even more brilliance in the future.

Crow encourages people to welcome them, create happiness in the cracks, and laugh even as the world gets heavy. The result is a song that delicately nudges you to love and embrace yourself. It is an anthem for anyone experiencing tough times who refuses to give up hope.

BluntBrad Jr. finds calm ambition in the laid-back shine of “It’s All Good”
BluntBrad Jr.’s new single, “It’s All Good,” sounds like a steady handshake and a deep breath. It’s warm, honest, and not trying to be cool. There isn’t any fancy production hiding behind layers of polish here. Instead, the song is all about being honest.

“It’s All Good” is a very human way to be hopeful at its core. The feeling is simple and real, like someone who won’t let little things stand in the way of their goals. The words to the song sound like friends talking to each other. They discuss their goals, their drive, and their need for attention in a way that is honest and not needy.
The production backs this up by making sure that everything is open and airy. The instruments are simple and easy to understand, so BluntBrad Jr.’s voice and message come through clearly. The song feels real because it doesn’t have a lot of extra stuff in it. You’re not hearing a heavily constructed persona; you’re hearing someone at the start of a journey, eager to make their mark.
