When the writing is genuine & thoughtful, and when the humanity of the performance is clear & captivating, all you really need is the song. That’s all you need with this release.
Songwriter
Mario Marco Farinato’s abilities as a musician are mesmerising, though it’s his passion or emotional input that really helps it shine. The experience is entrancing because the intensity rises & falls away in the most natural, deeply human manner.
The video is as bold as it is colourful, the same goes for the personalities portrayed of the leading ladies themselves. The fun & optimism is matched flawlessly by the sheer professionalism & attention to detail.
What a joy this is to discover. Just four songs full but overflowing with uplifting melodies, riffs, harmonies & hopefulness. The Pasadena Sessions is a gorgeous little collection of songs from a thoughtful, talented folk-pop artist & songwriter.
The song has been superbly well crafted. Despite the electronic edge of the music, the humanity of the piece is unquestionable. The leading voice has a mellow sense of wondering & passion, carrying the song’s sentiment brilliantly.
It’s great that the music is able to lull you into a comforted state, you can let the good vibes of the sound pour out & be an enjoyable part of your evening. It’s a clever way to get something out there, without having it weigh down too heavily on the listener.
An intimate, free-flowing, organic folk-pop song that is joyfully calming to witness. The recording style has a raw or vintage vibe to it, enhancing that intimate feel & making this appear is if it’s being performed right there in the room with you.
As you make your way through the songs on this project, the colour, the concepts, the confusion – it all navigates proudly through deep thought, & it exercises a refusal to simply comply or feed into the rat race of modern life.
Softly bringing together the emotion of soul music & the smoothness of RnB, this is a fairly minimalist, dreamlike song that lays its melody, ambiance, and sentiment before you in a subtle yet captivating way.
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.
The movement of this single has a fairly classic feel to it, almost like a long lost hit from yesteryear, the sort that can easily be rediscovered & reintegrated into your modern day playlist.
Offering a fresh look at indie rock, with a country or blues-rock twang, superb story telling & a fresh concept, among other things – this release is brilliant. Segio Gaetani exerts his artistic drive in a way that satisfies on a number of levels.
