Stinkus - “Falling In Love”
From the USA, Stinkus brings out the positive vibes with the delightful indie pop-rock track, “Falling In Love.”
“Falling In Love” is pushed forward by a steady, straightforward, and consistent electronic drum groove that holds a crisp tightness, permeating an upbeat and uplifting vibe from the very first beat. Contrasting this is the warm, organic texture of an acoustic guitar that pleasingly grounds the composition in a sense of reflective intimacy.
“Falling In Love” is however a deceivingly multilayered track with subtle moments of a second acoustic guitar and electric guitar weaving soothing licks. Synth keys also introduce breezy, pulsing, and occasionally gentle percussive ear candy that help enhance the sense of depth and melodic complexity.
The highlight, though, is the rich, expansive vocals that are filled with intricate harmonies and uplifting melodies. The arrangement of the voices feels almost symphonic, reminiscent of The Polyphonic Spree. These performances beautifully capture the essence of the song, making it captivating, immersive, and joyously resonant.
Lyrically, the track explores the experience of falling in love and the power it holds. It captures the feelings of being willing to move mountains just to ensure the happiness of someone special. “Falling In Love” is reflective, anthemic, and wonderfully optimistic– a sincere slice of summer.
