PURCHASE/STREAM: ROB TIREA ‘HOLD ME’ [LOWLY]
Enlisting euphonic vocals from the outset, ‘Hold Me’ is a dreamy creation that presents all of the radio-ready sensibilities of a summer anthem. The introductory vocal piece flows with euphoric serenity, whilst a deep-house bass line and vocal chopped stabs ring out with a buoyant energy, creating a perfectly weighted track. Boasting infectious musicality founded on delicately momentous rhythms and heady cadences, the cut serves as a whimsical love song for the masses. ‘Hold Me’ is yet another perfect example of Rob’s mastery for scintillating melodies that hit the sweet spot, and is set to be a high-flying addition to his fast-maturing discography.
“When you first listen to it, it sounds like a love song but I actually wrote it to depict how I feel society in America has become more self-absorbed than it’s ever been. I wrote this with the idea that there’s a need for us to look out for one another and to have some sense of community. We’ve become so radicalized by our own self-interest that it’s led to an increased loneliness amongst many. Ultimately though, it’s up to interpretation and that’s the beauty of music.” – Rob Tirea
Possessing a rare aptitude for modernising classic elements from the golden age of alt rock and indie pop, Rob elicits his own authentic strain of house music with great success; a refined skill that will ensure his relevancy in an ever-changing dance music space. A conceptual thinker, the contemporary star’s productions depict an emotive narrative and often aim to deliver a poignant message of self-assurance and positivity.
