Igor Longhi is a musician based in Trieste, Italy; beginning his musical education at the age of just 5 years old and adept in multiple genres. Starting in Reggae band Makako Jump, Igor’s new single 'Il Mare A Nord Est' is certainly a testament to his talents, showcasing the very essence of what happens when an artist pours raw emotion into their work.

The title of the track translates to 'The Sea in the North East' and is teeming with intrigue and wonder, un-doubtable intimacy and a strong sense of melody and texture. Beginning with a mellow atmosphere that establishes the tone of the piece, you can’t help but feel transported to the coast; admiring the sea in its vast glory and feeling awestruck. This is expertly captured by Igor’s use of melody, which sits on top of the music, adding a majestic tone to the piece and enticing the listener to listen on as he takes us on an emotional journey.

Igor's minimalistic approach is one of the greatest strengths of this piece - there’s a lot of space between the notes, adding to the intimate feel of the track and when the tracks texture increases, it does so with maximum impact, flowing effortlessly from on section into the other.

Igor Longhi 'Il Mare a Nord Est' is out now from all digital stores; including iTunes, Spotify and Amazon Music.
