It's that time of year, when (if you live in the U.S.) many of us are preparing to celebrate Thanksgiving. Our thoughts turn towards remembering to practice gratitude. Today, among many things, I'm grateful the song "Heart Melter," by the 22-year-old Parisian, Alma Elste, is filling my apartment with buttery soulful pop electronica. Alma's pure vocals, mixed with playful light electronica, blend well with the slight rainfall and sounds of car wheels traversing slick streets in the distance. The sound of an owl-like "hoo hoo" that is peppered through the song helps elevate this song to varying heights, but the steady electronica keeps you grounded, while propelling you forward.
The email submission we received
stated: "'Heart Melter' is about the mellow moment when you know something
could be possible with someone you have a crush on, the moment you want to go
on a life time holiday with that person and leave it all behind." Perhaps this is why the lyrics towards the
end are light, repeating "Heart Melter," mimicking the loss of words
one may encounter when your heart is racing, as you are magnetized, pulled
forth towards pursuing attraction. I'm crushing hard.
