“Sky is Blue” is an EDM dream with a melodic melody. After listening to the song blindly, I felt euphoric and comforting. Like the sun shines on you after a rainy day, and your face feels warm as you bathe in the sun’s rays.
The production has a dream sequence that can played in the club and your room. It’s reminiscent of some of Zedd’s earlier songs (specifically Clarity, Beautiful Now, and Happy Now) and Avicii’s songs (specifically The Nights, Hey Brother, and Waiting For Love). The vocals from the featured artists and EDM elements make the song fresh while reeling in nostalgia for anchored memories.
Though the lyrics are one stanza repeating 3 times, it paints an image of being on cloud nine after a love confession.
I said “I love you”
Warm air, the sky’s blue
Then you said that you do,
It’s too good to be true.
This review is a collaboration between two artists, Fabio Romagnoli and Rafael Manga. They worked together on other releases: Desert Sky, Overdose, The Future, and House Things. “Sky is Blue” is available on February 7 on all major platforms. If you’re a fan of EDM and dreamscape music, this song is for you.
About Fabio Romagnoli
Fabio Romagnoli has been ghost-producing for 20 years. He started releasing music on YouTube and Instagram under the pseudonym “Transferunique” and eventually released songs under more pseudonyms. But he ultimately decided to be visible.
“The reason why I wanted to be more visible is because my music saved the life of a subscriber,” Romagnoli said. “So here I am, hoping I can give comfort with more melancholic tracks and alter moods to happiness with the more uplifting songs.”
Romagnoli often collaborates with people who don’t get enough credit or recognition. “Supporting fellow artists with untapped potential has always been a big goal for me,” he said to Unheard Gems.
