FEATURED RELEASE
Our featured EP, ‘Opposite’ by Regena Hoye, is to be released on the 2nd of April and will be available to stream on all major streaming platforms! The EP consists of five tracks:
‘Hello’, ‘Stop’, ‘Opposite’, ‘Sunday Ride’, and ‘Whose Show’.
“‘Opposite’ has an upbeat tempo to encourage people of all ages to finger-snap and dance. Within the lyrics, there are tones of flirting, tolerance and laughter.”
The title track, ‘Opposite’, sits at 67bpm and lasts around two minutes. The track commences with a six second instrumental introduction that sets the tone for the main vocal line. The spacious compositional style gives the perfect amount of room for the prominent vocal line. The creatively panned instrumental layers amalgamate to form a dynamic and immersive listening experience that will have you hitting that repeat button for another listen the moment this single draws to a close.
Although ‘Opposite’ is technically grouped under one genre classification, each track delivers a diverse range of compositional elements that showcase Regena Hoye’s songwriting talent; from the emotive vocal color, rhythmic percussion and catchy hook of ‘Hello’, the jazzy piano progression, stylistic brass and foundational bass that provide the perfect platform for the seamlessly synchronising lyricism of ‘Sunday Ride’, to the upbeat tempo and uplifting melody that will have you humming along with the chorus of ‘Whose Show’.
From the well balanced production and creative instrumentation, to the impressive vocal performance, fans of Regena Hoye, as well as those who appreciate new and creative music, will definitely want to hear this EP.
