‘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.

Fateful Entanglements: “In Every Way But One - EP” by Binding Blank Pages

“In Every Way But One - EP” by Binding Blank Pages

A debut EP titled “In Every Way But One,” featuring members with roots in Greece, the Netherlands, France, and the Czech Republic – welcome to Binding Blank Pages. The band’s 6-track work offers complex guitar layering, introspective lyrics, and dynamic sound escalations that harmonise in their brilliance.

Nuanced vocal lines and melancholic melody leads culminate in distorted soundscapes where the turbulence dissolves into a feeling of acceptance. 
The opener “Passersby” captivates with its evolutionary structure, while “Small Steps” finds a delicate balance between vehemence and playfulness. “Skies” invites a foray into the realms of New Romantic, carried by an ambiance that radiates an almost tangible romance. “Indigo Veil” leads back, prompts a brief pause, and lays the groundwork for “Again & Again” before the final title track “In Every Way But One” completes the work with a grand final chord. 
Binding Blank Pages navigate with finesse through the fields of indie rock, skilfully incorporating elements of other musical genres. Fateful entanglements, introspective self-reflection, and the melancholy of lost affection do not remain in musical stagnation but unfold an EP that is far from content-empty pages and instead reveals a musical essence that captivates the listener. In summary: simply a magnificent debut.
