Absurd Heartbreak - The Maestro

-

 


Some words from Absurd Heartbreak

"I have recently dropped a new EP called “The Maestro”. The EP combines elements of Alternative R&B, Emo Rap, Bedroom Pop, and Pop Trap music. I called the EP “The Maestro” because when I think of the name “Maestro”, I think of an artist who has range and is not afraid to experiment. And that is what I was doing throughout the whole EP, exploring genres and having a range. The EP features close friends of mine, including QueenK, Lul Curls, Brizzy, Dnd Roxy, and the debut of my cousin Chris (Gritz on SoundCloud), who began to work on music about a couple of months ago. The YouTube and SoundCloud edition includes a bonus track “Vitamin D”, which was a remix of the original by my other friend 0neelam, who is from the UK and does R&B/Neo-Soul music. I began work on this EP as far back as Late-May, when I recorded the song “I Wish” but wasn’t satisfied with how it sounded the first time. After a few takes, I made the final version and began recording other songs for the EP. I dropped the AMV (Anime Music Video) for “I Wish” a week before the EP drop, and Hakami helped make the edit for me. By combining Aesthetic Anime clips and a song that was slow and for sure a vibe, the overall parts worked hand in hand. The song also dropped on SoundCloud the same night it dropped. Also too, the individual artwork for “The Maestro” was influenced by anime and I made sure the artwork matched the vibe with each of the songs. Track 1 “Hotel Room” was inspired by the sound of Ariana Grande’s “Thank u, next” and “Positions” albums. Track 2 “I Wish” was inspired by Alternative R&B and Trapsoul music, also inspired by artists like The Weeknd, PARTYNEXTDOOR, and Bryson Tiller. Track 3 “Sofa” was inspired by Clario and Bedroom Pop music and Lul Curls did a great job with her part on the song. Track 4 “Perfect” was a longer song was me going from a baritone to a falsetto every now and then in the song. Track 5 “Splash ll” was a more uptempo song that was for the clubs and was a song everyone can get up and dance to. Track 6 “Pain” was inspired by Juice Wrld and Emo Rap, and Dnd Roxy made sure the song fit the overall theme of pain and suffering. The bonus track “Vitamin D” was a more Lofi R&B song inspired by Neo-Soul music. Overall, the EP is very diverse and I hope y’all enjoy the EP!!!"

Folk-Hop Vol.II Jesse Aymon Dettwiler, most commonly known as C4C, is a multi-instrumentalist composer and music producer. This is the second chapter of C4C's Folk-Hop Movement Debut LP. This new "Folk-Hop" style has been described as "indie-folk culture finally catches the hip-hop bounce"  Us at IndieX couldn't disagree with that statement at all. C4C blends together sounds that work on so many levels. All the tracks move seamlessly as you're taken in by the immersive listening experience. Somewhat minimalistic, the calming, tranquil tones introduced in the tracks sit atop a hum of a variety of different instrumentation. Having already released dozens of tracks, it's little surprise just how much soul is poured into this art, and the outcome is staggering in its beauty.  The impressive element of the music is how tender and immersive it is, whilst still portraying a real and undeniable sense of power. It all passes with wonderful flying
