Artist Major Kami released a striking musical alternative to David Bowies ‘A better future, on the 28th of October from Bordeaux, France. The original song is of rock origin and Kami used an electro-pop vision for a new sound that is definitely captivating. This song is part of an 11-track album dedicated to the late star.
The song speaks of an imagined future, where there is more light than dark, more positivity than despair. The overall sound of the song is mesmerizing and puts you in a state of an ecstatic trance. The electronic element in the song really adds to the quirky and spacey vibe of Bowie’s. The soundscape is a magical and unearthly panel. The musical arrangement is complex, starting with a very fast piano made up of 2 notes that is very catchy, and moves on to intense high and low drums.
There are also funeral sound effects that take the music to a strange realm that isn’t earth along with beautiful spacey sounds that echo emotional intensity. There are also dreamy backing vocals of the vocalist’s voice which is angelic and ghostly at the same time, and a male robotic sound that feels like it’s coming from far away. We honestly can’t stop replaying this one!
