A brand-new and brilliant Indie tune full of nostalgia and enthusiasm Review of “Blue Canopy: Motovun"

Hello my dear friends! In the first place I wanna tell you that I hope all of you are very healthy and well-protected against this pandemic that affects us all in different ways than ever before. Unfortunately, in my experience, I have known many friends who have contracted the virus and most of them are fine but others are not. In my case, and thank God, I have not been infected and neither has my family. Happily the vaccine has arrived and we must be very optimistic and patient. I've been very busy this year seeing many things, but I was in the need to quickly return for writing a new article, including New and fresh Music in 2021 for your greatest pleasure. It takes a lot of time and dedication to search, find and share a brand-new song to satisfy our senses and tastes with the best atmospheres, harmonies and melodies possible. Sometimes can be very difficult to find a unique and amazing song because many bands can sound very similar and boring without passion, emotion and honesty. But, in the other hand, happily we can find incredible and talented Musicians anywhere in the world, cultivating different styles and surprising us in the best way fulfilling all our expectations. Finally, after an intensive exploration and listening many New Music, I came across a true gem entitled "Motovun" that excited me so much because of the awesome mix of styles and sonic details. It´s rewarding when I hear a contemporary tune and I can´t classify it with a couple of styles only. In this way, listening more and more, it was surprising to discover, little by little, many more styles and hidden sounds and melodies. "Motovun" (2021 - GRIND SELECT), is the most recent single of the innovative and talented band BLUE CANOPY and the theme is a fantastic and nostalgic trip recreating outstanding textures and detailed atmospheres. Blue Canopy is the solo-project from the Multi-instrumentalist ALEX SCHIFF coming from Portland - Oregon, USA and the theme "Motovun" (a town located in Croatia) is included in his brand-new second EP. Alex Schiff started as a keyboard player of the band Modern Rivals sharing the stage with bands like RA RA RIOT, THE BLACK KEYS and STARS. BLUE CANOPY´s debut EP "Mild Anxiety" (2020 - GRIND SELECT) showed his skills to compose a variety of great songs with a Jangle, Indie and Twee-Pop style
