Laurentis seems to notice that everything around us became significantly more digital in the past couple of years. Things you wouldn’t have imagined to be on the web are now available in one click. Today, people can party, work, and treat chronic diseases online.
At the same time, such fast technological advancement has come from the chain of very tragic events, which also affected Laurentis. It’s also unclear whether working, partying, and treating diseases online will serve us well in the long run.
Still, it affects us, here and now. The music industry is no exception, as artists faced some of the most tragic COVID economic consequences. Social distancing restrictions and the lack of concerts brought down many musicians and record labels. So, Laurentis adapts.
The Soundtrack Of Today
Laurentis seems to get used to the new realities, slowly but surely. His latest single, “Signora,” sounds like the perfect soundtrack of today. The love ballad packs so many sound effects that it sounds apocalyptic. The ideal way to describe Laurentis’s track would be the “Fight Club” ending scene. Which is also somewhat of the fitting image of today.
“With “Signora” I wanted to try my interpretation of a classic serenade,” Laurentis explained. “I wanted to take some of the mixing and production techniques I’ve been learning over the past couple of years and use that to beef up a track that was inspired by my musical roots.”
Laurentis’s sound experiment has gone well enough. Whether the times apply or the artist figured something out, the song sound surprisingly organic, which you would probably not expect from an electronic serenade remix.
“When I wrote the track, I closed my laptop and turned off all the lights just sitting on my bedroom floor with my guitar like I used to back in high school,” Laurentis shared on the song production. “The little voice memo I recorded on my phone I sampled, and that became the base for the track, playing over the intro and hook. It felt like the song wrote itself after that.”
