Electro-Pop’s Poet of Pain: Me & Melancholy Releases ‘Tears In The Rain’

‘Tears In The Rain’  by  Me & Melancholy Whenever there’s a new release from Me & Melancholy , it fills us with anticipation. This time, the artist paints a compelling portrait of human vulnerability and the complexity of interpersonal relationships.  ‘Tears In The Rain’ succeeds in capturing the essence of ephemeral beauty and the pain of the inevitable, expressing it through music. The dynamics of estrangement, articulated in the lines ‘I’m not able to reach you ’ and ‘ the more I try, the further I push you away ’, reflect a tragic irony. It feels like a dance of approach and withdrawal, prompting listeners to contemplate the paradoxes that often occur in our most intimate relationships.  The artist’s signature melancholic tone conveys a plea for acceptance and an attempt to bridge the gap created by misunderstandings and hurt feelings.

"Bad Man ft. Beeson" by Pink Honey Moan

"Bad Man ft. Beeson" by Pink Honey Moan

As Pink Honey Moan, singer/songwriter Jared Lindbloom has embarked on a journey beginning on the rolling prairies of his home state of South Dakota to the eastern seaboard. Teetering between the dusty, folky, homespun songs of his early EPs and the electro-surf-rock & pop of bands FISHDOCTOR, Stargazy, and Tredmills, the music Lindbloom crafts as Pink Honey Moan wraps direct, heartfelt lyricism in swaths of washed-out electronics and soaring melody. 
"Bad Man" isn't so much about a nefarious character as it is more akin to the sentiment of "it's bad man." You made your bed, now you gotta sleep in it. I wanted it to sit at the intersection of Nick Cave x Elliott Smith x The Magnetic Fields during a scene in an episodic crime thriller like True Detective. Bad Man features vocals from alt-pop artist, Beeson, and trumpet from French musician, daoud.

Es ist die zweite Single aus seinem "upcoming" Album ("The Live Life Girl Will Arm You"), wir sprechen von Pink Honey Moan und "Bad Man". Mit an Board waren dieses Mal Beeson (vocals) und daoud (trumpet) und das Resultat kann sich hören lassen. 
Eleganter Pop, der hypnotisiert, musikalisch werden dunkle Gassen und Hinterhöfe skizziert, in denen ein distinguierter Wind weht, welcher eindeutig die Handschrift von Beeson und daoud trägt. Das gesamte Arrangement überzeugt, klingt souverän und lässt genügend Platz für die Protagonisten. Pink Honey Moan befindet sich eindeutig am richtigen Weg und liefert mit "Bad Man" einen begnadeten Vorboten zum Album ab.
