Kodiak Arcade Delves into the Heart of Human Connection with “Another Summer”

Kodiak Arcade, the musical alter ego of acclaimed composer Graeme Cornies, is back with a compelling new indie electronica track titled “Another Summer”. This introspective and nostalgic composition invites listeners to ponder the intricate dynamics of human relationships and the enduring power of love.

With an impressive track record of over 15 years in the industry, Graeme Cornies has made significant contributions to over 40 TV shows and more than 1,000 television episodes. Alongside his writing partners at Voodoo Highway Music and Post, Cornies has established himself as one of the most prominent and heard composers globally. His work has graced hit TV shows such as “Paw Patrol”, “Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood”, “Cat in the Hat”, and the “Total Drama” franchise, earning him numerous accolades, including awards from SOCAN and BMI.

In recent years, the artist and his team have been honored with multiple Emmy awards, further solidifying their reputation as industry leaders. In 2020, Graeme Cornies and his talented collaborators secured their second Canadian Screen Award, highlighting their exceptional contributions to the world of television and music.

Beyond his work in television, Graeme Cornies explores the realms of electronic pop music through Kodiak Arcade and neo-classical compositions with Cabin Fever Orchestra. His innovative approach extends to social media, where he shares imagery and animations that celebrate the wonders of nature, self-reflection, and the boundless potential of imagination. This artistic journey has garnered a substantial following for both projects, exemplifying Cornies’ ability to captivate audiences visually and musically.

“Another Summer”, the latest offering from Kodiak Arcade, delves deep into the intricacies of long-term relationships. The track poses a question that often lingers in the minds of individuals: Can love flourish continually, even after the initial enchantment of a new relationship fades? It reflects on the commitment required to sustain a connection and nurture it through life’s many challenges. Kodiak Arcade’s Graeme Cornies raises the thought-provoking notion of whether it’s possible to keep falling for each new version of a partner as they both grow, evolve, and encounter life’s trials and tribulations.

In Cornies’ own words, “I don’t think this song makes a point so much as it asks the question above. I’m not sure this question has a right or wrong answer either. It sometimes strikes me how irrational it is for me to ask anyone to stay with me long-term if I can’t even guarantee who I will be in 10 years. And it’s the same in reverse. It takes some irrational faith to commit to another person to the point where you are building a life together, to say – no matter who we become as individuals – I will try to love that next version of you too.”

“Another Summer” is a masterfully crafted exploration of the complexities of human connection, set against a backdrop of delicate, intimate, and vulnerable indie electronica. The track and video’s emotive soundscapes and profound lyrics create an immersive experience that encourages listeners to contemplate the enduring power of love in an ever-changing world.
