It’s time to bring this page back to life after a summer of idleness. Outside the sun is hotter than ever before this summer, but more and more eager artists in my inbox are shouting for Autumn and movement. Time to pick up my pen then.

I’m starting with Natali Felicia’s new single “Easy Ride”, which this week also was accompanied by a music video. If you remember well, you know that she released her debut single in Spring, “Used to Be”, a slow, beautiful and dreamy pop ballad which was hard to resist. The new song is in the same spirit and comes out like a child of late summer’s nights, from the long nordic sunsets where we dwell in the space between day and night. She’s singing about fears and how she meets them, it’s dark and melancholic, but yet warm and hopeful when she embraces the fears and rocks herself slowly to safety and secure grounds. Maybe it’s the music journey she just begun she’s singing about, and surely she has picked the right subject? Most often it’s our own fears which is in the way of what we truly want to accomplish. The song and the video dress the subject in a wonderful way, and on the sideline I shout: You have nothing to be afraid of, it’s gonna be alright!
