‘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.

"Heaven" by Dream Eyes

Heaven

"The Limerick-based Dream Eyes represents a growing strength in his local music scene, with his latest single ‘Heaven’, a touching reflection on resisting fantasy, and making reality beautiful", als Vorwort zum Künstler. 
Und ich muss gestehen es ist einer der Songs die dieses gewisse Etwas mitbringen. Gut gemachter IndiePop wo der Charme vergangener Synthpop Tage versprüht wird und auf aktuelle Electronicmusic trifft. Näheres zu Dream Eyes und dem seinem neuesten Release findet ihr im nachfolgendem kurzen Q&A part.

Q&A

Dream Eyes is/are …?

Dream Eyes is an alt-pop musical act lead by Tadhg Collins, that prioritises collaboration and the exploration of new sounds and artistic ideas.

What/Who was your inspiration for "Heaven"?

The inspiration for Heaven is getting caught or lost in daydreams and fantasies about the future. How this can be enjoyable and comforting but can also be frustrating and limiting to a persons growth.

When do you say or decide that a song is ready for a release?

It’s very hard to know. I have a lot of demo songs that are arguable completed but don’t feel ready for release. I think working with other people and gauging their reaction or interpretation of the song is very useful but ultimately I think there is a moment where the song passes some invisible threshold and just feels ready.

What's next for you?

Some more releases from Dream Eyes in the coming months, and rehearsing a live set also which will hopefully see Dream Eyes debut on stage very soon. Exciting times ahead!
