Song: Neptune Blues
Overall Impression:
GelinGarcia and Andrea MG collaborate take listeners on an emotionally charged and musically chill journey into deep space with their original track, “Neptune Blues”! Atmospheric electronica supports soulful vocal tones as “Neptune Blues” reveals a thoughtful lyrical exploration of cosmic loneliness and reflective healing.
Strongest Point(s):
For an amateur effort, there’s quite a lot working well in this track! Subtleties in the sound design set a strong sense of atmosphere from the very first moments, using atmospheric frequencies and carefully applied reverb and delay to create an all-enveloping spaciousness in the sound. The main guitar riff provides a stellar counterpoint to the light percussion at the core of the groove, both parts grounded nicely by full and immersive bass tones. Andrea MG’s vocals enter the scene with a burst of color and character that immediately enliven the experience and give it personal depth and resonance. Each of these elements are well-considered and applied in their own rights, working together to leave a really promising first impression!
Target Audience Appeal:
Fans of independently produced electronica will be able to hear the telltale signs of growth and development in the writing and overall mix of “Neptune Blues” while the heartfelt and soulful singing at the track’s topline brings a certain magnetism that’s sure to resonate among many! Listeners with a passion for the Indie Chillout and EDM scene should keep an ear out for more from both GelinGarcia and Andrea MG respectively. – Jon W.
In Brief:
This really is a strong effort for something amateur! I can personally hear a cohesive sound palette and think GelinGarcia has done a great job working towards that end result here.
The last element has to do with performance as well as mixing, where Andrea MG’s vocals are concerned. Their natural skill and talent really brings a great color and timbre to the track, and for the majority of the song does well to stay both expressive and accurate. 2:12 specifically feels like a strong moment of artistic flair while keeping the fundamentals together.
