Solarrio Takes a Nostalgic Journey with New Track “Forever”
Solarrio, the musical moniker of David Barenboim, takes listeners on a journey through time with his latest track, “Forever”. Born and raised in a family of classical musicians, Solarrio’s unconventional path led him from playing in rock bands to becoming one of Germany’s most sought-after hip-hop producers. Now, under his solo project, Solarrio combines his diverse musical influences to create a unique blend of eighties-inspired synthpop, R&B, and funk.
The upcoming album, “All The Wrong Places”, scheduled for release in spring 2024 on Playel Records, promises to be a testament to Solarrio’s musical evolution. The album features a collection of tracks that showcase his distinctive style, with the first two singles, “B the 1” and “NLF” featuring Holland Izz, already making waves.
The latest addition to Solarrio’s repertoire, “Forever”, is a result of collaboration and years of refining. The instrumental, which had been tucked away on Solarrio’s hard drive for years, found new life when co-written with Craig Walker (Archive, Them There). The chorus underwent several transformations before settling into its current form, and the addition of live saxophone elevated the track to new emotional heights.
Solarrio shares insights into the creation process, stating, “This song feels like nostalgia. That one moment you want to hold on to for the rest of your life. It’s funny because looking back, we tend to remember the good things way more than the bad, as if the ‘good old days’ didn’t include many of the same problems we face now. But this song sounds and feels like a summer breeze on a beach or like your high school prom, haha.”
“Forever” captures the essence of a bygone era while offering a fresh and modern twist. With its dreamy melodies and romantic undertones, the track promises to transport listeners to a world where time seems to stand still.
