Alexander Paul Burton is distinguished by his masterful use of sweet, emotive keys.
In the track Soirée, warmly detuned electric keys weave a melancholic melodic theme, perfectly paired with a subtle, steady beat in the background. The track is intentionally crafted with a flat, subdued texture, immersing the listener in a contemplative, almost nostalgic mood.
Plymouth highlights the organic timbre of the piano, delivering a more loop-driven aesthetic. Its repetitive structure creates a captivating, almost hypnotic rhythm, drawing the listener deeper into its spell. Once again, the beat takes a backseat, softly underpinning the melancholic atmosphere without overpowering the production.
S’embrasser sur le gui revolves around a jazzy piano theme, exuding romance and elegance. The gentlest of the three pieces, it feels like a vintage soundtrack to a classic film. The soft, lofi beat remains consistent with the mood of the collection, enhancing the dreamy, wistful tone of the composition.
It’s always refreshing to encounter productions in this genre where songwriting takes center stage—songs that their essence would resonate even if played straight from a piano sheet.
