Michellar – Never Say Sorry
There’s something about Michellar‘s music that keeps us returning and listening to all those songs she has recorded so far. Is it because of her marvelous voice or those lush soundscapes? Or maybe because of those qualities stacked in every segment of her songs? Who knows, but one thing is for sure: Michellar’s music always carries a certain atmosphere that tackles all the senses. On a modern indie scene, where artists and bands usually overly exploit influences, experiment too much, or tirelessly reinvent the same old wheel by mimicking something the greats recorded decades ago, being a genuine singer-songwriter who always delivers fascinating compositions is a difficult task to achieve. Thankfully, Michellar always brings those fresh, unique, innovative, exciting songs that her fans and music enthusiasts always adore and return to. Her latest composition, “Never Say Sorry,” exemplifies her dedication to the craft. Songwriting, composing, arranging, and producing abilities showcased in this particular composition are rarely heard or seen on the contemporary music scene nowadays. By blending some of the finest properties borrowed from alt-country, country, indie folk, indie pop, indie rock, and soft rock, Michellar crafted a song that demonstrates how even the long-established music genres, like those mentioned above, can still sound innovative and unique. She incorporated these styles depending on the current mood of the song, so you’ll notice how some of these genres act as enhancements, accentuations, decorations, or tiny details that unquestionably improve the song’s structure and ambiance. While “Never Say Sorry” mainly carries trends that meet all the trends in contemporary music production, there are also some moments where Michellar implements subtle touches of nostalgia, pointing out to the era where styles like alt-country and indie folk ruled the airwaves. This tiny yet important detail improves the listening experience, making “Never Say Sorry” worth repeating over again. Therefore, all these experimentations with various approaches and complementary styles resulted in a catchy song that will appeal to anyone who appreciates cleverly assembled and flawlessly performed music.

The way she carries honest emotion throughout the entire composition goes beyond composition so many times. Her impressive vocal range seamlessly balances high, mid, and low notes, emphasizing everything she intended to achieve with this song. Besides decorating all those segments and instrumentations with such precision and finesse, her voice also contributes more than necessary emotional depth and complexity over an already intricate structure. You’ll also hear the additional vocal layers, back vocals, and sing-alongs, giving an anthemic vibe to the song. In the meantime, the interplay between guitars and keys plays a significant role in shaping a lush backdrop for all the vocal harmonies to shine upon. You’ll hear how the chord progressions delivered on acoustic guitar and riffs delivered on electric guitar resonate on one side, while the other shines with catchy, memorable, engaging themes, melodies, and harmonies. You’ll hear all those mesmerizing synth leads and pads lurking beneath the guitar works and making this atmosphere even more luxurious. Although subtle, the basslines are still vividly hearable, warm-sounding, and profoundly detailed, lurking beneath all the mentioned instrumentations and contributing heaviness, clarity, depth, and warmness to this track while simultaneously binding guitars, synths, and rhythmic patterns. With all those expertly assembled, flawlessly performed, well-accentuated beats, breaks, fills, and other percussive actobatics, they also keep everything in line and offer more groove and detail to this song. As you can see, Michellar thought about everything while writing, composing, arranging, recording, and producing her latest track. “Never Say Sorry” is an alt-folk masterpiece where Michellar’s creativity, talent, and skills shine in the limelight. Each segment and orchestration carries so much honesty, emotion, and power that you’ll gladly revisit this song over and over again. With all those marvelous vocal harmonies, catchy guitar works, lush synths, intricate basslines, powerful beats, and perfect arrangements, “Never Say Sorry” positions Michellar at the very top of the singer-songwriters scene. Therefore, you should immediately check out this alt-folk gem. Do not miss it!

"insistent acoustic motifs twist in on themselves, hypnotising all those within earshot before fading out to let the drone have its moment in the sun and show off its lysergic charm."

Ali Murray (@alimurray) released a new album this week! It's a wonderful offering, full of hazy melancholic summer pop, shoegazey alt-folk, ethereal electronica and acoustic dreampop. One of the tracks also includes me on guest vocals :)
