Embody
feat. WWJWW
​
release date 06.11.2020
A symbiosis of contemporary vocals with a vintage instrumental and an analog sounding overall mix.
My goal was to achieve a record with a recognizable rhythm full of vintage warmth that complements WWJWW's melodic topline in an adequate way.
While Hi Hats are leading the rhythm, classic and contemporary instruments support the singer's soulful vocals, glued together with subtle 808s and a fresh arrangement throughout the record.
Blue Memories
​
release date 15.04.2020
My debut single as Areo is about the beautiful moments in our lives we don’t forget, which are saved in our minds as "blue memories“.
The lyrics symbolize these bright memories by telling a short story the protagonist faces in the song - a mesmerizing place at the sea where he meets a woman he adores.
To complete the positive vibes of the topline, I gave this song a modern future pop touch with an uplifting beat and two unique drops.
Long story short:
An uplifting beat matched with male vocals talking about the beautiful side of life.
​
The minimalistic cover artwork represents this idea visually. The frame symbolizes the memories, which are either blue (positive memories) or red (negative memories).
