Today's music looks like those days during which the sun comes out suddenly, breaks the sky after a storm and lights the streets, the buildings, and the graffiti on the walls...
And so, we are obliged to stop looking to the ground and turn our eyes around. God, it's full of colors 'round us!
Amélie's music is like that. It's simple, instantaneous, truly "pop", and vividly colored.
As you know, UtopicMusic doesn't like dressing the posts with too much words. A few ingredients, simple recipes and let's leave room to the music.
So let you be caught, 'cause today's ingredients are really simple:
"Do it over"
"slow"
"Shake you"
"get high"
"soon a shine will come"
Romanticism, metropolitan beat, nostalgic rides, love... all of this melted in a EP called "be low", which deserves a careful listening.
This band plays music which sounds "English", somehow. But if I told they're Italian, almost no one would believe me... So, go and discover them:

Music world is full of yearning surprises.
Stay tuned,
