“The goal of the song is to bring awareness to the need for more jobs and opportunities for people with disabilities to work, dream, and be so mainstream.”
The single behind the video, ‘Mainstream’, lasts around four minutes and sits at 76bpm. The track commences with a thirty-two second introductory section that sets the tone. The stylistic and emotive vocal color seamlessly synchronizes with the intense vibe of the instrumentation. The subtle layering of multiple backing-vocal elements adds a creative flare to the overall sound without detracting from the lyrical prominence.
The steady beat combines with the melodic instrumentation to provide the perfect platform for the vocal. The contrast between the authentic lyricism of the verse and the repetition of the main hook line for the chorus delivers just the right amount of dynamic diversity to ensure that this single is engaging from start to finish. By the time ‘Mainstream’ draws to a close, you’ll find yourself humming along with the catchy hook and in need of hitting that repeat button for another listen.
From the well balanced production and creative instrumentation, to the impressive vocal performance, fans of 4 WHEEL CITY, as well as those who appreciate new music, will definitely want to hear this single.
