‘I’ve Got the Method I’ve Got The Means’ by Charlie Smith

Lo-fi rock solo artist Charlie Smith has released a song called ‘I’ve Got The Method I’ve Got The Means.’

It showcases a sound that is reminiscent of Kurt Cobain combined with a lo-fi aesthetic.

Unconventional Lyrics Add to the I've Got the Method I've Got The Means' Unique Tone

The song’s tone is described as interesting, possibly hinting at its uniqueness or originality. The lyrics, which include some indecipherable mumbles and natural sound bleeds, may contribute to this overall tone. Intentionally using unconventional elements such as indecipherable mumbles and natural sound bleeds, the song aims to create a specific mood or atmosphere.

Charlie Smith infuses the song “I’ve Got The Method I’ve Got The Means” with a sense of hopelessness through certain lyrics. Thus, by using the line “Isn’t about her despite what it seems,” Smith possibly refers to a relationship that is not what it seems on the surface, which could cause the listener to feel despair or disillusionment.

Moreover, the lyrics “would understand if you had this disease” could have multiple interpretations. They could express empathy towards someone suffering from an illness or an understanding for a problem the singer is facing.

Overall, the inclusion of these lines in the song contributes to a feeling of hopelessness or despair that resonates throughout the track. Thus, it is possible that these emotions represent the singer’s feelings or those of a character in the song.

With the 8-track album under his belt including this song, it’s clear that he has what it takes to impress.

Cece Vee’s ‘Black Light’ is the song to get your power back in a bad relationship

Jerald Juatco — Thu, 22 Jul 2021 18:04:30 +0000

Cece Vee’s ‘Black Light’ is a song that breaks the surface of a toxic relationship and brings back one’s power.

I got my first taste of Cece Vee’s ‘Black Light’ through Instagram and it was such a refreshing find! In other words, her sound is like nothing I’ve heard before, which makes me want to listen again. (thanks to #altpop hashtag!)

The artist goes on to say that this track is about taking your power back and making the conscious decision to walk away from a toxic relationship. Additionally, it deals with how a person can be slowly and unknowingly suffocated by toxicity in a relationship, referencing the great internal struggle that occurs as the toxic influence slowly creeps in and drains the life out of them.

Upon researching, I found its music video as well and it is an amazing spectacle. Also, not only does this banger have an incredibly catchy melody, but it also has a killer music video that was so eye candy with vintage telephone and television edited in a way that you can feel the artistry and dance along with it.

Then I was stoked to know that it was inspired from Film Noir. For instance, the dark and gritty atmosphere of the vintage film genre is captured in this mysterious visuals, with some eerie feel at some moving parts of the video.

The video was filmed and edited by Joshua Cookson. Check out this awesome ‘Black Light’ Music Video here:

Also available on different digital streaming platforms: Spotify, Apple Music and Deezer.
