One of the most musically exploratory & lyrically interesting releases of P.M.K.S so far. Nothing like you might imagine a Valentine’s Day single to be, but that’s a huge part of its appeal.
Alt Pop
This is definitely one of the more interesting & genuine pop releases of recent years, and that’s not at the cost of quality – far from it. These songs are supremely well polished. Celeste Buckingham is making waves & it’s no wonder why.
This meeting of various genres & styles makes for something loaded with fresh identity right now. And on top of this, you get the concept of the song – the lyrics, the bare poetry of it, the reflective honesty that digs at some of the deepest human emotions & thoughts.
The RnB-fusion producer & songwriter has been playing the saxophone since the 4th grade – this gem of a trait comes through beautifully throughout the single.
The good vibes you might hope for as the sun sets on a long day. The concept & music go hand in hand, creating this arena within which you can observe, relax & consider.
The track doesn’t arrive covered in glitter, it warms you with a hopeful musical backdrop, it grips you with a heartfelt presentation of poetry & character.
The further you get, the better it sounds. Structurally there are many occasions when you really appreciate the unpredictability – the fitting freshness.
This could well be the best release from Grant Smith so far. A stunning song that develops in a simple yet immensely satisfying way. A great piece of music.
As an artist, songwriter & producer, the 15th is undeniably creative & expressive. The originality & professionalism are sky high – a mighty combination.
Fusing a thick & distorted musical backdrop with an exotic, delicately powerful leading vocal melody, the song surrounds you in atmospheric ambiance.
The production is on par with the best, the songwriting & performances add that necessary touch of humanity to really bring it into a world of its own.
When we’re faced with a mainstream arena of over-produced songs that are all too often formulaic, Ace Lover is precisely the kind of option music fans need.
