Photography, here metaphorically as a key to the past, opens doors to moments that seem long gone but live on within us. The chorus – a kind of collective mantra – describes not just a journey, but an intertwining of stories that support each other. The garden in which hopes take root becomes a symbol of what must be nurtured in order to flourish. And when ‘ our songs have lost a note or two ’, it is not a flaw, but proof of lived depth.

Contrary to Ordinariness: "I AM" by OCCO

"I AM" by OCCO

OCCO
OCCO’s latest single, ‘I AM,’ is a riveting tale woven with themes of power, betrayal, and the intense emotions of a dethroned ruler. This track takes us deep into the psyche of a dictator staring down the collapse of his reign. The music and lyrics together evoke a dark, dystopian atmosphere, setting the stage for the final, desperate struggles of a collapsing tyranny. 
This is encapsulated in a pop requiem that musically portrays a leader attempting to radiate glory in his final moments. Breaking away from the usual pop scene, ‘I AM’ stands out by boldly going against the grain. OCCO has truly honed this craft. 
The single straddles the line of pop, offering catchy tunes while also inviting listeners to stop and think, giving it a depth that’s rare in today’s music. With ‘I AM,’ OCCO elevates his artistry to new heights, showcasing a talent that’s sure to reach its pinnacle in his highly anticipated upcoming album, ‘ROLL OUT THE FOG’.
