San Reetam “Between Hearts”

“Between Hearts” is a stunning and profound single where cinematic soundscapes meet epic vocals in a timeless portray of classic and modernity. The collaborative musical project San Reetam brings together three virtuoso musicians: vocalist Anastasia Quinton Smith, producer MDB and pianist Joe Pike. Together, they explores a vast and diverse palette of sonic expressions in the latest single.

How much emotion can music really hold? San Reetam tests its limit in “Between Heart,” weaving vulnerable, intense storytelling and powerful songwriting into their sensitive, gorgeous sonics. The track sees a glorious blend of nostalgia, spirituality and sincerity, reminding you of some of the greatest songs in the music history.

The duet between Smith and MDB is a special surprise. Being a professional singer with more than 10 years of experience, Smith brings a rich and balanced maturity into the music. Her vocals are polished and effortless, expressive and intimate. MDB, on the other hand, is raw and explosive. His vocal is heartbreakingly authentic and rich of complexity. When you put two vocals together, it’s just a big wow moment.

There’s a dramatic and poetic aspect to “Between Hearts” because it’s presented in a way very keen to music theatre while drawing from the perspective of film scoring, which gives the track a very strong visual stimulation. Different emotions are being tenderly explored with nuance. Lyrically, the exploration of spiritual love and distance is stirring and moving.

The chorus is more than ever epic and wrenching. Hearing a song explodes in such vulnerable way both lyrically, melodically and sonically is a very special experience. From an impressionistic mist at sea to the flooding of heart’s own desire, San Reetam certainly take listeners on an emotional roller coaster, navigating through different soundscapes where the fall of darkness is then met with the rise of golden sunlight.
