Infectious Melancholy: ‘Fake Love’ by Emilie Thorsby

‘Fake Love’ by Emilie Thorsby

Today’s Friday brings a multitude of overwhelming releases to the playlists, all vying for the listeners’ attention. Among these, you’ll find the song ‘Fake Love’ by Emilie Thorsby. At NenesButler, we’re always keen to report across all genres, and therefore, we don’t want to withhold this hidden gem from you.

The story behind this song is both sad and a reflection of life. In brief: The ex-partner decides to flee to Stockholm, and Emilie learns all about it from a mutual friend. The broken heart becomes the origin of ‘Fake Love.’

The theme is wrapped in an upbeat pop track that also exudes a touch of Mediterranean flair. Emilie Thorsby impresses vocally and shows that she feels comfortable in this genre.

With a runtime of just under two minutes, ‘Fake Love’ is intentionally kept short, a decision that mirrors the transience of a relationship. In the end, we not only have a broken heart but also a fantastic song that resonates with those seeking to overcome such a situation. Emilie Thorsby kicks off her summer splendidly with ‘Fake Love,’ and it definitely makes it onto our playlist.

#listenNOW! Riverwoods - "Vagabond"

A song that speaks to the nomadic spirit within us, reminding us that we are all travellers on the road of life. Despite the challenges and obstacles, 'Vagabond' encourages us to embrace the journey and find strength in our vagabond identity. It's all about resistance and perseverance, expressing the deep emotional pain that can be experienced, but also emphasising the importance of moving forward and leaving the past behind. Musically, the sound design is good and varied, and the vocals, which have a bit of Nordic and Celtic flair, are completely convincing.

#ListenNOW! "Zu Hause" by TEYNA

Mit „Zu Hause“ liefert TEYNA Akustik-Pop, der sich sanft an unsere Seelen schmiegt und uns verzaubert. Sie verwandelt die Sehnsucht nach einem Hafen der Ruhe in magische Noten. In einer hektischen Welt thematisiert sie Zweisamkeit und stille Momente. Ihre stimmliche Performance transportiert Emotionen meisterhaft und wird durch das Arrangement perfekt untermalt. Die Percussions setzen dabei gekonnt Akzente. Das Gesamtbild bleibt zurückhaltend und harmonisch, aber mit der Erlaubnis, die Grenzen der Zurückhaltung zu überschreiten. So verschmelzen Instrumental und Gesang zu einer wunderbaren Einheit und machen „Zu Hause“ zu einem perfekten Begleiter auf der Suche nach diesem magischen Ort.

#ListenNOW 'AREA CODE' by ARPRAXIS

The beats per minute increase and the nostalgic flair that hovers over the track is constantly pushed to its limits. You are practically involved in a chase that accelerates at breakneck speed. With 'AREA CODE' ARPRAXIS is, as always, in the fast lane and pushing the boundaries. No limit - full fun" seems to be the motto. Unbridled energy that cannot be tamed, in the form of notes, drives the listener forward. ARPRAXIS is the driver, 'AREA CODE' the vehicle. Another great surprise from ARPRAXIS.

#ListenNOW! ‘One Last Kiss’ by Me & Melancholy

In the past, Me & Melancholy focused more on societal themes, whereas with ‘One Last Kiss,‘ he is taking a new direction. Both lyrically and musically, Peter Ehrling presents himself as more open, personal, and accessible, showing a greater affinity for pop. The night is over, the day is dawning, and with it comes a new chapter. Although ‘One Last Kiss‘ maintains a recurring connection to the past, it simultaneously keeps a certain distance, allowing for a reinterpretation of the past. Peter moves almost weightlessly across the floor, stepping out of the shadows, and presents an outstanding synth-pop song with ‘One Last Kiss.‘
