Remember those songs from the late 80’s and early 90’s that used to compel you to daydream and hope on the spot because they were THAT dreamy? Retrobright’s newest single, ‘The Edge of Your Dreams,’ has that exact appeal with its upbeat melody and uplifting lyrics. The Los Angeles-based indie band of the trio, Santos, Eckstrom, and Baber, has not only managed to capture the essence of the aforementioned period but has also successfully put their own modern twist on it, establishing their own style as a result.
From the very first guitar riff, the curiosity gets piqued, and being introduced afterwards to Santos’ vocals feels like the cherry on top. The richness of his vocals and the overall harmony with the background instruments hint at the influence of The Smiths, and the lyrics seem to come straight from a poem, setting the perfect atmosphere for the journey this track is about to take you on.
‘The Edge of Your Dreams’ is nothing short of a dream-like experience, and with the ways it highlights the importance of the beauty of a fleeting moment, listeners will actively find themselves immersed in the song and moving along to the beat, even if it may only be their head.
Retrobright’s expertise in vocals and their use of instruments such as guitars, synths, and drums showcase their experience, especially since they have been part of the LA music scene for quite a while now. The ways in which they have demonstrated the unique blend of nostalgia and modernity in ‘The Edge of Your Dreams’ are nothing short of commendable, and you can have a look at it yourself for the ultimate experience on their Spotify page!
