Neil Armstrong’s ‘In the Borderlands’: A Nostalgic Journey Through Love and Loss

“In the Borderlands” by Neil Armstrong Neil Armstrong steps onto our blog stage for the first time as an artist. His music pays tribute to the icons of the 80s, including The Cure, Tears For Fears, Pet Shop Boys, and Howard Jones. Oscillating between the realms of Synth-Pop/Rock and New Wave, Armstrong’s transnational work, fluctuating between Spain and Scotland, is expressed in his latest piece, “In the Borderlands.” The song takes us on an introspective journey through the nuances of human relationships, unfolding the complexity of interpersonal dynamics .

"Dull" by Cabin

Dull

“In my mind, It’s a soaring, forceful, and expansive song, designed precisely for when I had felt the opposite, grounded, timid, and inhibited. I took those feelings, and flipped them.”, sagt er selbst darüber und  so ist man fast gezwungen, gefangen es sich anzuhören. 

Gemeint ist damit die dritte bzw. neueste Veröffentlichung von Cabin namens "Dull", und ich darf sagen es ist ein Soundspektakel, intensiv wie  emotional und pittoresk traumhaft. Herrlich aparte Soundkollagen nuancieren sich vorsichtig und tanzen miteinander, drehen sich im Klang. Ein Reigen aus Dynamik und Melancholie im perfekten Zusammenspiel. Die Musik als Farbe, der Sänger als Maler, der Rahmen selbstgemacht ein Psychedelic Masterpiece der Indie Szene, der Gesang vollendet den Track, und der Part der Gitarre als Kirsche oben drauf, einfach genial. 

"Dull" by Cabin it's like a perfect day in Autumn or simply a 4min30sec dream.
