A New Single From Le Concorde Has Arrived
Le Concorde returns with a new single that breeds a beautifully cinematic soundscape with crisp acoustic guitar tones, lush and flowing songwriting, and just a hint of something classic.
"Morning By Morning" is a track that has a lot to say and can be quite descriptive in its lyrics, enough so that you end up painting such great pictures in your head as the song unfolds, which is one of the things that gets you attached to the song itself.
The artist is certainly known for being quite detailed in his lyrics, and this is one of the songs that serves as a perfect example of exactly that.
As the song plays on, it gets bigger and a little bit more intense with bright choruses, synthesized string sections, and again, this bursting cinematic vibrancy that feels authentic and somewhat graceful while bringing that sort of vintage, almost '80s pop vibe into play.
One of the things that hit me with this track is the way the vocals are performed because you have this sort of subtle or soft half-whisper approach where you hear the air in the voice, but the melody still shines through wonderfully.
There was a lot of attention paid to the progression and composition of this track, and it unfolds with such a beautiful aesthetic to the point where it feels dreamy in a sense.
The song easily showcases the many influences that Le Concorde has taken on to help create the music he loves so much.
There is some soul in this track, and it has a passion behind it that is a little bit rare but gives the song a robust and authentic feel.
The song has a breezy and sort of freeing feel, and the music video that accompanies it seems to push that sentiment a little bit further.
This is a beautiful music video and features a lot of amazing shots of the beach, waves crashing through rocks, seagulls flying through the air, and a romantic undertone that serves the track well because that sentiment also shines through in the track itself.
One of the things I like to pay attention to when it comes to sounds like this is the mixing and editing of the music video. This track was mixed super well to the point where it holds true to that almost old school pop aesthetic, and the mix has a lot to do with that.
The music video is edited incredibly well, and you can tell that certain shots were lined up with the lyrics of the song all throughout its course, and that's something that takes a lot of time to master.
This was a beautifully keyboard-riddled opus of a ballad that comes through with such a fun pop overtone and stands tall amongst some of the pop songs that I'm hearing right now simply because it brings things back to something more familiar.
It doesn't just feed off of doing something new or blending a million genres into one song. It has this genuine pop soundscape to it, using classic synths and keys along with beautiful guitars and vocals that give you melodic hooks, even in the verses.
It's a pop song that uses the songwriting element to catch your ear. It doesn't need any sort of over-experimental approach. It is perfectly done and the aesthetic feels natural and strong.
This is absolutely a song that you'll remember after you hear it, and if you listen to this one with headphones on, you can take in all of the great layers that are going on.
Like any kind of great pop music with a message or sentiment behind it that comes from some real place.
I would suggest listening to this track the first time around, by watching the music video, which is embedded just below.
Jump into this because it's a great sort of contemporary pop single that blends old and new school sounds together to create something that is impactful and lasting.
Check this song out and see what it does for you.
