‘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.

Nobody but you

Das Gefühl jemanden zu lieben. Die innigen und unbeschreiblichen Momente die während dieser Zeit entstehen. Alles Glück der Erde vereint in einer einzigen Emotion. Alle Impression von außen werden diesem Rausch des Herzens untergeordnet. 
Ein junger Künstler und ein respektive sein Lovesong. David Mac veröffentlichte vor einigen Tagen "Nobody but you" und bietet eine Nahaufnahme zu diesem Thema. 
Die Soundlandschaft, dezent und voller Hoffnung, der Klang eines kurzen Moments der eine Ewigkeit dauern soll, der Beat wie der Herzschlag dieser hervorgerufenen Emotion und die Vocals dem Stil entsprechend perfekt, unique vielleicht sogar etwas melancholisch taucht David in diesen kurzen Augenblick des Lebens ein um eine bzw. seine Geschichte zu erzählen. 
Die neueste Veröffentlichung "Nobody but you" von David Mac ist definitiv der nächste Schritt in seiner noch jungen Karriere und man darf gespannt sein wohin in diese führen wird. Im Anschluss noch ein kurzes Interview mit dem Künstler, welches sich auf alle Fälle zu lesen lohnt, um ihn näher kennen zu lernen. Thanks for your time!



Q&A

David Mac is...?

...an alternative R&B singer, songwriter and producer from the Gold Coast. I have been singing for the majority of my life, and began producing music in high school. 
I have been playing the guitar for roughly 3 and half years now. My style of music incorporates meticulous production with ambient synths and lyrics that hit close to home.


Who inspired you to make music in general and especially to the song "Nobody but you"?

My inspirations are The 1975, The Weeknd, Billie Eilish and Mansionair. These artists have such a unique, almost cinematic feel to their music, which is something I try to replicate in "Nobody But You".


What is your creative process like and was it different for this song?

My creative process usually entails of laying out what synths/ pads I want to use for the foundation of the track. I try to create a certain vibe for it before working on a melody. I usually write lyrics once I’ve got the majority of the instrumentals down. 
I do this because I feel that the instrumentals act as a guide to what direction I want the lyrics to follow. This is exactly what I did for "Nobody But You".


What's your most useful talent besides music?

I would say story writing. I completed a few creative writing courses during my university degree and I really enjoyed it. I think that I will eventually want to write and direct short films that accompany my music.


How would you describe 2021 in a sentence?

2021 was a chaotic wake-up call which made a lot of people realise that the important things in life are doing what you enjoy and spending time with friends and family, not worrying about pet peeves or daily occurrences that are so insignificant to the bigger picture of your life.


What was the first ever Pop/Electro/etc. song you listened to or remember on?

If I can call correctly, "Often" by The Weeknd was the song that got me back into alternative R&B/ pop.


Do you remember your first ever self-written song?

Yes. A song called ‘Treetops’. My mates and I worked on this together and it was the first song I actually released back in 2018.


What’s next for you?

To continue releasing songs that people will love, and to improve my artistry. I would like to continue working on my live performances and looking at various ways to connect with my audience.
