As Far As The Eye/I Can See by Carlos Barata: Review

“As Far As The Eye/I Can See” is a delightful acoustic pop number by Carlos Barata. The track is a mix of calming instrumentals and a soothing voice gracing the mic. Altogether, the melody has a rather healing effect, and you’re gonna love every minute of it, folks.

Carlos starts his marvelous number with a wave of tranquility and light. An arrangement filled with hope and harmony initiates “As Far As The Eye/I Can See.” In it, a clean acoustic guitar plays out while a poetic singer takes us away on a peaceful voyage. Eventually, when the percussions enter and the instrumentals gather momentum, the track’s structure forms a cohesion with the listener. Once the connection is established, enchanting timbres of basslines and synths take our stress away. It’s a lovely atmosphere of sound, where each segment felt real and close to the heart. As mentioned earlier, “As Far As The Eye/I Can See” has this intriguing healing effect. So, if you’re lucky and the weather is favorable, pop this tune on and relax to the sound of ocean waves. While at it, I truly hope a pleasant wind passes you by and makes that moment unforgettable.

Carlos Barata reminds us that music doesn’t need to be flashy, doesn’t need uncountable layers of rhythms, but a soul. “As Far As The Eye/I Can See” depicts that very essence, with an evocative aura of sound, and plenty of heart.
