โSconiโs Now is the kind of album that sneaks up on you, wraps you in a warm sonic hug, and leaves you wondering where the last 40 minutes went. Equal parts dreamy, introspective, and refreshingly raw, itโs a showcase of the Austin-based musicianโs knack for crafting soundscapes from his bedroom with nods to Tame Impala and Still Woozy.
โSenses,โ the album opener, sets the tone with its churning synths and rhythmic beats that practically insist you close your eyes and breathe it all in. Sconiโs voice carries this track like a seasoned storyteller, shifting effortlessly between youthful curiosity and an emotional depth that feels far older than his mid-twenties. The lyrics? A gentle nudge to live in the moment and ditch the mental clutter.
Then thereโs โNostalgia,โ a track that absolutely lives up to its name. Mia-Liaโs rich, velvety voice layers beautifully over Sconiโs, creating a sonic duet that feels like flipping through old photo albums in your head. The vivid, dreamy melodies and aching vocals hit you like a tidal wave of yearningโa reminder of how sweet and fleeting lifeโs golden moments really are. By the time Sconi croons about looking ahead to tomorrow, youโre both teary-eyed and oddly hopeful.
And then thereโs โSomething More,โ which feels like floating in a hazy, introspective daydream. The track opens with foggy keyboard melodies, only to pulse and bloom like sunlight breaking through the mist. Sconiโs lyrics ponder lifeโs big questionsโwhere weโve come from, where weโre going, and what lies beyond. Itโs deeply philosophical without ever feeling heavy-handed, as if Sconi is inviting you to wonder alongside him rather than feeding you answers.
At its core, Now is an album about transitions: stepping into a new creative chapter, reflecting on lifeโs fleeting beauty, and embracing the unknown with curiosity and hope. Listen to it on Spotify.
