‘Garden of Letters’ by Carlos Ucedda

‘Garden of Letters’ by  Carlos Ucedda Carlos Ucedda, who has been very active this year, also ends the year with one last great release. As always, the keyword is art-pop, and this year he has given it an enormously colourful variety, combining it with avant-garde pop or a touch of post-punk and dark wave.  ‘Garden of Letters’, the new release, follows the path of 80s dream/synth pop and provides a wonderful musical framework for the lyrics. The lyrics thematise the duality of love and loss. The song shows how love can be a source of joy and inspiration as well as pain and longing. The preservation and remembrance of past feelings indicate an attempt to preserve the emotional value and meaning of past relationships. The capriciousness of love, the failure of romantic promises, and the search for meaning and comfort in memories of past affection.   The listener is invited to reflect on the transience and emotional complexity of human relationships.

The Artist: The Racket - "I need more"


The song was completely born out of the situation that Callum was stuck in the house and couldn't get a proper studio so everything was done at home. Und das Resultat ist schlichtweg fantastisch. „I Need More“ ist die nächste Veröffentlichung von The Racket. 

Dieser Track zeigt die melodische Seite von Callums Songwriting, ohne aber die Kraft der Arbeiterklasse im Storytelling zu vernachlässigen. Des Weiteren ist es natürlich ein Beweis seines Talents und zeigt wie weit gefächert dieses ist. Aufgenommen zu Hause beginnt es mit dieser unwiderstehlichen Melodie und wenn dann der Gesang einsetzt ist man angekommen, angekommen in einem Tagebuch. Verzweiflung und Hoffnung geben sich die Türklinke in die Hand. Wenn The Kinks, Bob Dylan treffen, um einen Song zu schreiben, würde es wahrscheinlich genau so klingen.

Songwriter Callum lässt uns wissen,“one of my favourite things I’ve written  from the lockdown. The song is kind of like an open diary for anyone to hear what’s going on in my life. It’s about battling the thoughts of doubt and hope”. 

So we have to say Achtung: Here comes The Racket with "I need more" and I guess we all want more, more songs like that one.
