Actress and singer Emilie Reid has presented a new song that takes us into a world of retrofuturism with a touch of pop culture.
This year, Emilie Reid started with her debut album “Leopard~Sukha”, where she revealed her talent as a multi-instrumentalist. In her work, she is responsible for lead and backing vocals, bass guitar, keyboards, piano, and drums. This mix can also be heard in the single “House of the Silent”.
From the very first seconds, she plays synthpop, which is unexpectedly joined by a rather lively drum sound, unusual for the genre. Then a wave of disco rolls in. Still, the latter comes as little surprise to Emilie Reid’s fans. On her album, she already managed to try synth, disco, and even indie. Finally, vocals are added to this list in “House of the Silent”.
They suit the pop music of past decades, although their appearance in a song with an obvious hint of retrofuturism may raise questions. On the other hand, for those who are tired of similar melodies within the genre, “House of the Silent” may become a discovery.
And yes, we have keyboards that stand out among the other instruments. At some point, it starts to seem that they are living a life of their own, and watching that life is interesting.
As a result, “House of the Silent” is a good addition for collectors of unusual music and for those who enjoy following every instrument.
