Peppy, bright, with tropical vibes and a tragic ending, ‘Falling for Love Again’ is the title of Emmanuel Carlos St.Omer’s latest single. With pop accessibility at its core, ‘Falling for Love Again’ is a self producer beauty that mainly aims to be an easy, pleasant listen, while delivering its profound story, based on Tom Hanks’s all too famous Castaway.
Based in Saint Lucia, a tropical island nation in the Caribbean, the sea breeze and chillness is there in Emmanuel Carlos St.Omer’s choices of synth sounds, his easy going chord sequences and melodies, as well as in his effortless vocal delivery. ‘Calling for Love Again’ is a song that’s built on a plot twist to Castaway, and is a song about how happy endings don’t always happen in real life as they do in Disney movies.
In the process, St.Omer truly managed to create an effervescent pop tune that you could have on repeat for hours without feeling an ounce of fatigue. Mainly a thing with its unconventional rhythm tracks, the click-y percussion creates a jubilant, bouncy groove, and the snaking sub bass line is melodic in a modest fashion, and both together create a fresh rhythmic tapestry that makes ‘Falling for Love Again’ memorable, while the song’s dynamic, multi-faceted composition, keeps the song engaging and the fantastic melodies makes the whole experience quite sweet.
Emmanuel Carlo St.Omer’s latest release checks all the boxes it set out to check, and some more over those. A delightful pop tune with a solid story in its heart, a timeless nugget of wisdom, beautiful production, and a Caribbean breeze to see it through. ‘Falling for Love Again’ is sure to please.
