Greetings dearest gentle readers and music lovers let’s welcome Netherlands-based artist Disdarken back to our blog. Disdarken is a joint venture between Alan V. Niculae and Nick Carmine and is based in Tilburg, Netherlands. They first ventured into the worlds of LoFi and Synthwave music during the trying COVID-19 pandemic. Their songs “Droid,” and “Apart from Darkness” were great successes and the amazing duo is back again with another song called “Far from Home”, which was released on 24th April. Let’s talk more about the song

The song opens with a dark yet catchy melody, that beckons you to listen to the song

Inspired by Nick Carmine’s own experiences growing up on a train his father operated, the track presents a sad narrative of the emotional distance between a child and a parent. (” Who will help When I can’t find my own way through? Like the character who is lost, Carmine probably felt distant from home, (his father)distant from where he knew since he was always on the move

This single, with its sophisticated production that mimics the rhythmic cadence of a sluggish train, and the amazing vocal performance is the standout in Disdarken’s musical repertory.

“Far From Home” exemplifies Disdarken’s ability to create a melodious and melancholy ballad that strikes a deep chord with listeners. I am familiar with their music game and they are a powerful and unstoppable duo but, don’t just take my word for it, I implore you to listen to this song and feel the magic that I felt as well
