‘The Journey’ - The Octopus Division

  ‘The Journey’ - The Octopus Division In ‘The Journey,’ a sonic mosaic unfolds that—permeated by neon-soaked synth pads and a melody that feels like memory—is less a song than a spiritual compass. The time that relentlessly pursues us, according to ‘Time keeps chasing us every day’, is not portrayed as an enemy, but as a constant touchstone that we face with our heads held high: ‘ We won't let the rain wash us away’ . Photography, here metaphorically as a key to the past, opens doors to moments that seem long gone but live on within us. The chorus – a kind of collective mantra – describes not just a journey, but an intertwining of stories that support each other.

The Artist: Ben Denny Mo - "6AM"

 

“Music is my life, it’s the only way I’ve been able to express my myself fully. I’m very dyslexic, which has hindered every other learning activity except for music.”, sagt er. Da sieht man diesen jungen Mann und nichtsahnend hört man sich seine Musik an und dann wird man von seiner Energie fast weggeblasen. Den aus Fakenham stammende Singer und Songwriter kann man getrost als Ausnahmetalent bezeichnen, er bringt viel wenn nicht alles mit um  ein ganz Großer zu werden. Der Track 6AM überzeugt auf ganzer Linie, nur von seiner Akustikgitarre begleitet entzündet er hier ein Feuerwerk, seine Vocals gleichen einem emotionalen Festakt mit all den feinen Nuancen eines Bruce Springsteen, Michael Jackson, Sam Smith oder aber auch John Martyn. BEN DENNY MO und 6AM das passt, das hat Qualität, Folk Pop oder auch Acoustic Pop, wie man es auch immer bezeichnen will, von seine besten Seite. So we have to say Achtung: Here comes Ben Denny Mo to show you what energy means.
