There's something magical about music that feels ideally suited for both a breezy beach and a relaxing night on a rooftop. This is the vibe of Volcanic Shores' new single, "My Friend Lives on the Coast." Recorded in a cozy studio in Neasden, the song captures a blend of memories and energy, with each note radiating a gentle longing.
At the heart of the track is a rich and warm sound that feels both familiar and inviting. It's created with vintage synthesizers that add depth and character, making the music feel alive and authentic. These synths flow and change, much like the tides at the beach. Adding to this beautiful backdrop are the laid-back vocals of guest singer Cassy. Her singing feels intimate, as if she's sharing a secret with you, making every listen feel personal yet mysterious.
"My Friend Lives on the Coast" has an uplifting quality that transports listeners to another place. It's the kind of song that could easily fit into a chill playlist for a beach party or a relaxing café vibe. Its overall feel is both calming and adventurous. You can close your eyes and drift away while also getting a sense of stories waiting to be told.
Volcanic Shores excels at creating music that's deeply personal while still being relatable to a broad audience. Drawing inspiration from artists like Bonobo and A Man Called Adam, this project transcends mere song creation, crafting immersive experiences. However, "My Friend Lives on the Coast" stands out as a unique piece, showcasing the band's confidence in its sound. It embodies patience and subtlety, allowing the music's emotion to resonate deeply.
