E.A.Poets Approved/Bands We Like – Mock Deer
Good Day Noir Family,
our “E.A.Poets Approved/Bands We Like” section is dedicated to Mock Deer. I discovered this Artist while shuffling songs on Spotify and I liked his vintage sound.
I immediately liked the noir and mysterious atmosphere created by Mock Deer’s music.
A sound that has distant roots, a way of composing music from the past which, however, manages to be modern at the same time.
The chord progression and rhythmic variations are never predictable and banal and the listener remains glued to the speakers from the first to the last second.
The tone of the warm and dreamy voice is beautiful, perfect for telling the stories of the lyrics.
The tremolo effect on the guitars and the cadence of the drums make the new single “Let the Cold Light In” hypnotic and twilight.
A nice discovery that I recommend to everyone.
Let the Cold Light In is Mock Deer’s Single Out Now!
Dreamy and Magical!
