Music Sharing #1 After Tales
Hi there, I would like to start a series of short articles that share good music to you all.
Let’s begin with one of my favorite Hong Kong Indie Band — After Tales
After Tales, a band that you might not be familiar even if you are a Hong Kong citizen, is one of the greatest hidden gems I discovered these days.
Some of the characteristics of their songs I love: Sweetness, cathartic and determination
Music speaks louder than words, let’s listen to their newest release — Sweet Dreams
The song begins with warm and melodic guitar riffs, vocal line joins with a peaceful and sweet atmosphere.
compared with their previous releases, sweet dreams shows great improvements on the balance of mixing, the melody also composed smoother than before.
My favorite section in this song is the bridge
The silent symphony of the midnight
Be my lullaby
Clear up my mind
The moonlight casts my shadow aside
Love me, disgrace me, say you love me
What’s on your mind?
The bridge shows the singer’s loneliness at silent night, and all the negative thoughts were swept away by the calm of the moonlit. It gives a hard punch to listeners(like me) with emotional weight.
To conclude, although they are a relatively new band, the quality of their songs are quite good. Hope you enjoy my recommendation today, there are lots of good music waiting for us to discover in current global market, and I will share more high quality music in future. You can kindly follow me for notification when I recommend new songs.
