Big-band vibrancy and a catchy pop performance underline the conceptual humanity and nostalgic disco energy of Ignacio Pena’s uplifting new single To The Stars.
Released as a three-track single or short EP, To The Stars emerges surrounded by storytelling wonder and floor-filler colours that unite for a euphoric and multi-layered crescendo of a sound.
It’s a funky, classic vibe, loaded with layers of instrumental charm and vocal passion, and the song hits with all the more impact, thanks to the ambient introduction, and the acoustic finger-picking of the follow-up song Longing For Flight.
The idea was to pay tribute to the legendary astronomer Carl Sagan, and in the process highlight the creative freedom and versatility of music as play. It’s a job well done, and a project that’s impressively eclectic and accessible, for fans of multiple genres.
