If music could paint a dreamscape, “Sympatico Now – Extended” by Marc Soucy would be the soundtrack to one of those vivid, cinematic visions that linger long after you wake up. Right from the start, it pulls you into an eerie, buzzing glitch of layered sound, like stepping into a shifting, neon-lit world where time moves both too fast and impossibly slow. Murmured voices swirl in the background, adding an air of mystery, like ghostly whispers in the wind, before the strings surge in—rich, powerful, and undeniably hypnotic.
The drums throb with an addictive pulse, keeping the track grounded even as it continuously expands, shimmering and gliding into unexpected sonic territory. There’s a tension between the elements at play here—the warm, soothing waves of melody wrapping around the edgier, buzzing textures above like light flickering through the cracks of an old film reel. It’s a piece that doesn’t just sit still; it evolves, morphing into something new with every listen, making it impossible to predict where it’s taking you next.
Soucy’s production is meticulous yet feels organic, blending electronic precision with an almost cinematic storytelling quality. There’s an undeniable world-music influence woven in, but it doesn’t lean on any one genre too heavily. Instead, it creates its own hybrid space, effortlessly balancing between the futuristic and the familiar.
By the time the track reaches its peak, you’re completely immersed—lost in its glittering soundscapes and deep, resonant undertones. Listen to “Sympatico Now – Extended” on Spotify.
