Kepa Lehtinen – Fall (Spotify)

Categories: Audio, Best of 2020, Neoclassical, The Latest|Tags: , , |

“Kepa Lehtinen with Fall once more showcase his outstanding technical ability in Theremin and its bond with the Piano, exploring more complex harmonies. Storytelling which flirts with a cinematic mystery that builds up a beautiful emotive atmosphere.”

-Nagamag.com

Finnish composer Kepa Lehtinen comes out with his latest electronica classical infusion.

His new song FALL Combines instrumentation that is unusual, the harmonies are modern, with a melody that is nonetheless easily approachable and beautiful. Autumn colours can be heard from soundscape created with the theremin accompanied by piano and contrabass. Due to the fact that the sound of the theremin is influenced by the slightest vibration or breathing of the body, it provides a truly natural sound although it is an analog synthesizer.

“The theremin’s role has changed in my music. It is now an underlying organic element that makes my sound both retro and contemporary at the same time. I honestly do not know anybody using the theremin like I do.”

Sunken Dreams (Umeå Bodø) (Video)

Categories: Neoclassical, The Latest, Video|Tags: , |

“Sunken Dreams by Umeå Bodø hits you right in the heart from the first seconds with its memorable intro melody and as story telling goes further invites you into his paths of loneliness and fills you with melancholy, a melancholy though that turns into a message of not been alone. Someone cares about you out there. Seek!”

-Nagamag.com

When you lose someone. When loneliness strikes. Go to the water. Feel the wind, taste the salt. The sea is calling. The mysterious sea. She is calling. Close your eyes. I am here, my love.
