Comment: the last two issues of blocSonic being commented on Recent Music Heroes were rap/hip-hop related (Graphic Antics` What Does It Mean?, and Headsnack`s Alternative Facts) but this one being preceded to them is coming from Russia and stylistically it is a blend of synth-pop, indie pop, and electro pop. Of course, what kind of segment is more pre-dominant than other ones it depends on a certain track. Either hovering synthesised orchestrations are backed up by thudding drum beats or the sugary yet earnest lyrics is subjugated to the autotune effect or heavily chopped-up it depends on a certain composition. It is a solid love balladry for a contemporary AOR. Additionally, listen to the project`s other issues as well (In Your Arms, All About You).
