‘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.

Fresh Finds

‘Kissing Away The Silence’ by LUNER

A song about a relationship characterized by uncertainty, intense feelings, and the search for comfort. The two find themselves in a kind of emotional limbo where they don’t want to commit but also can’t let go of each other. Beautifully staged in a singer-songwriter style with lots of emotion, piano, strings, etc. A song to lean back and enjoy: ‘Kissing Away The Silence’ by LUNER. (... can be found on his recently released album Season 2: a story of letting go).

in da mittn von GRAHMS 

Um die lyrischen Kompositionen der Grazer Band GRAHMS voll und ganz zu erfassen, sind Kenntnisse des steirischen Dialekts von großem Vorteil. Ihr neuestes Werk “in da mittn” ist laut der Band ein semisatirischer Beitrag zur Auseinandersetzung mit Individualismus und Egozentrik. 
Jedes Mal, wenn ich ihre Musik höre, fühle ich eine kurze, aber intensive Verbindung zum Grazer Hauptplatz. Dort hatte ich während meiner Schulzeit das Vergnügen, eine Vielzahl von Menschen zu beobachten (ihre "Spielwiese" waren bevorzugt die Würstelbuden). Leider blieb mir damals aufgrund der kurzen Zeit keine Gelegenheit, tiefere Geschichten zu spinnen, da das Läuten der “Bim” jeden gedanklichen Ausflug abrupt beendete. 
Diese Beobachtungen haben nun GRAHMS für mich übernommen und erzählen die eine oder andere Geschichte weiter oder wie sie hätte sein können. Einfach wunderbar!
