Don't overlook Cindy Sterling: Pop artist Cindy Sterling advised us about her love for a gem Dominic Fike.
Cindy Sterling: I feel my favourite album/EP lately is Dominic Fike Don't overlook me, Demos – it was one thing I heard for the primary time in a very long time that felt so, free. Listening to Fike's means to lose himself within the music and ignore the stereotypical boundaries of sticking to a style, was wonderful. It actually modified my mind chemistry.

I’ve many different apparent favourite albums, corresponding to these of Taylor Swift, Lana Del Rey, Coldplay, The Kooks, The Beatles, John Mayer, Justin Beiber and Dua Lipa albums – they’re artists you’ll be able to't get sufficient of. . They’ve made their means into a variety of being well-known in popular culture.
One thing about Fike's means to combine MULTIPLE completely different genres has opened my eyes, ears, soul and notion to the world about how good it’s for me to not need to navigate a sample/ particular style. I might say that Dominic had a huge effect on my views of the route that was driving this album. I didn't need my music to suit into only one sound/style like 'pop'. That is what some kinds of music actually are and I feel that indie pop typically is now a bit oversaturated and subsequently underrated so listening to this report makes such an ideal level that the style can have far more which means. than individuals suppose particularly at first look. There may be positively an awesome emotional drive behind many of those songs and he or she does an awesome job of blending soul, R&B, pop, and even rock into the combination all through this album.
The manufacturing and music are ingenious and the entire report feels prefer it has much less boundaries than its predecessors. I feel a variety of that affect has to do with Dominic Fike and Colson Baker aka Machine Gun Kelly, as I really feel lately, they’ve pushed the narrative of getting to stick to a sound, the place Colson / MGK have additionally acquired hate for leaping into the world of alternative-pop/punk/rock from his former rap profession. To me, that confirmed versatility and I appreciated to see it.
As artists, we’re made to specific, discover, emulate and create – and I feel it's a extremely lovely factor to not be put in a field. That's why I actually like Fike's “Don't Neglect Me” EP, as you’ll be able to actually inform that he lets free and permits himself to do no matter type of music is flowing to him at that second. I feel there's a lot definition and layers to me as an individual and issues I've been by means of in life, that I don't need to be pressured to simply be this typical “pop” sound that we hear day-after-day. I don't need to be no one, I simply need to be me.
