DON’T FORGET ME-MAGGIE ROGERS.

Image
  La semana pasada se publicó el tercer disco de Maggie Rogers, Don’t Forget Me .   Para este tercer trabajo, Maggie abandona las guitarras rockeras, los sintetizadores y los agudos de Surrender para volver a sonidos más acústicos y diurnos. En Don’t Forget Me se deja el sonido nocturno y comprimido de la ciudad por el de banda sonora para los viajes de carretera de primavera-verano . Maggie Rogers se sitúa más próxima al single de 2019 , Love You For a Long Time , cuestionándose sobre el amor verdadero y abandonando la euforia del deseo de Surrender , reducido solamente a Drunk . Las reminiscencias a Kacey Musgraves -muy notables en el banjo de Sick Of Dreaming - en parte se deben al trabajo de Ian Fitchfuk, productor de muchas de las canciones de Golden Hour , también de Ghost de Sigrid , que figura como compositor de ocho de las diez canciones del disco, además de productor. Por otra parte, la primera pista del disco, It Was Coming All Along , recuerda a John Mayer en Love On T

JOHN MAYER-SOB ROCK REVIEW.

 Back in July John Mayer dropped his long-awaited album, Sob Rock.  The project comes three years after the first single (included on the album), New Light , which showed the direction of John Mayer's new music: very synthed and 80s-influenced. This is revealed again  in Last Train Home , with synths that recall Toto's smash hit Africa. To promote this song, Mayer teased it saying 'New music done the old way '. This seems the motto for the album and it really fits together with the sound of it: John Mayer goes back in time, to the 80s to make his new music and looks to the production and arrangements of those times, like in  the Christopher Cross-influenced Shot in the Dark .  The ensemble of 10 tracks contains the three previous singles: the mentioned New Light , the soul-pop  Carry Me Away and I Guess I Just Feel Like, which remained closer to the usual Mayer's sound.  In the remaining seven tracks, John Mayer coquets with other genres, from country and western

WE TALK TO FATAL FARM'S JEFFREY MAX TO KNOW MORE ABOUT JOHN MAYER'S NEW LIGHT VIDEO.

 In 2018, John Mayer released the song New Light.  The track, with 80s influences and great synths, sounded funky pop and different to his previous work. As he said on Twitter, he had some disagreements on the budget for the music video. The final result was a funny video shot completely by Fatal Farm on greenscreen using common images and enjoying John's sense of humor.  Jeffrey Max of Fatal Farm, director and creator of the video,  took some time to chat about the making of the video and the inspiration behind it: What inspired you for the video? How the song inspired to create the music video? 'John approached us with the idea of a "mall kiosk" style video. The kind of novelty video that anyone could walk up and pay for. He knew he wanted to do the whole thing on greenscreen and let us just find the best moments in the edit. The song is a reflection on getting older and changing, but the video idea seemed very rooted in the sloppiness of youth. That juxtaposition h
