The
texturing is diverse and often rich. At the start of “Quite Like Me,” it’s
the percussion that stands out. But Jerry Arlen shifts the kaleidoscope often.
Just beyond the two-minute mark, vocal skills command the spotlight. Both before
and afterward, distinctive instrumentation drives the song.
Still,
Arlen says that “Quite Like Me” is the closest track on the recently
released album “Luna I” to traditional, acoustic-forward Rock. He
adds, “It's got a nice hook that eventually gives way to a pretty slamming
sonic space, then the track kind of collapses in on itself like a dying star.”
Jerry Arlen is a songwriter &
producer based out of Ann Arbor, MI. Jerry was a full-time touring musician
until his 20's, when he settled down and opened Studio Arlen to produce albums
and collaborate with other creatives. His scores have won numerous film
festivals and he wrote the 2019 feature length musical hit “Groove.” With a Master's degree
from Berklee College of Music, Arlen's music marries his midwestern folk roots
with modern pop production to create some new ideas.
