In the music world, May Fall’s latest single “Sleep” has become the talk of town with its catchy melodies and original words. The song is a very good one to listen to because it has been well produced, and the singing and writing skills of May Fall are outstanding; this makes people repeat the song.
May Fall’s contemplative work on slumber casts an incredible spell that has escaped many artists. The Tel Aviv indie/alt/synth-pop artist explores sleep as a sanctuary, an avenue for self-reflection, and a means of getting away from reality using his perceptive mind for subconscious secrets. By means of introspective lyrics together with ethereal harmonies, he tells a story that resonates with the yearning towards a graceful descent into the dark embrace of dreams.
The music video was directed by Thanos Kallianiotis who takes us through dreamland as we see ourselves walking through Thessaloniki streets. Kallianiotis uses captivating images to capture sleep attractiveness, wakefulness horrors and insomnia lunacy as outlined in the song. In one stunning scene there is May Fall playing for himself while he sleeps crossing boundary lines between reality and dreams.
Finally, ‘Sleep’ by May Fall is a musical journey into the mystifying world of dreaming. It forms indelible memories as it gets people thinking about others who have ever sought comfort or mystery in sleep due to its clean production work, original words and catchiness brought about by its unforgettable tunes.
ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Departing from his progressive metal roots (Rotev/Road to Evenmind), Israeli artist May Fall debuted in his synthesizer driven venture with the singles “Blind Zone” and “Same Code” who enjoyed heavy rotation in hundreds of radio stations (and TV channels with their respective music videos) throughout the world. Fast forward to 2023, after a period which saw the release of his fusion trio’s (The May Fall Crew) acclaimed debut album “Overload”, May Fall returns with his new convention defying EP “Submerge”.
Dancing around the intersection of synth-pop, avant-pop, nufunk, and retrowave, May Fall’s music is almost too elusive to define. A trailblazing blend of propulsive beats, funky basslines, aurally gratifying synthesizers and celestial vocal harmonies – his music introduces a fresh musical depth that effortlessly intertwines with a captivating tune. A careful listen reveals jazzy chord progressions and mutually interacting synthesizer layers, yet the underlying harmonic complexity is cleverly woven into an infectious groove, making it enjoyable for casual music lovers and sophisticated musicophiles alike.
