Miguel Dias’ recent single ‘A Place to Dream (Falling Down)’ packs strong key notes of soulful R&B and delivers a universal message on the theme of love. Portugal-based artist Miguel Dias has been honing his classical guitar skills from a very young age, and the proof lies in his latest single. Drawing inspiration from genres such as classical, hip-hop, jazz, bossa nova, and even pop, ‘A Face to Dream (Falling Down)’ stands to be the perfect amalgamation of all of them.
Starting with a melancholic melody, Dias speaks of his struggles, experiences, and sadness while dealing with love. It continues against a beautifully harmonised choir, which accentuates not only his high vocals but also the vibrant and distinct drums. Then, much like a change in the seasons, a saxophone solo completely energizes and refreshes the mood as it is followed by powerfully uplifting verses that allude to inner peace.
Miguel Dias is not only a prolific artist, but he also happens to be a well-seasoned traveler, and it is due to his wide range of such influences that a song like ‘A Place of Dream (Falling Down)’ came to fruition. Recorded all over the globe in places like Brazil, Seville, Portugal, Guinea, and the USA, the track stands to be an exemplification of deeply heartfelt and personalized experiences of love and self-acceptance.
