Neve Bowen – Deep Blue Ocean

After the critically acclaimed debut single named Song For Anna, London-based singer-songwriter Neve Bowen returns with another exceptional composition that will unquestionably appeal to all indie rock fans. Deep Blue Ocean serves as an appropriate continuation of Song For Anna, but it also showcases a more detailed ambiance that leaves even more room for Neve Bowen’s magnificent vocal performance. Perhaps Deep Blue Ocean explores the fundamentals of an indie rock sound, but you’ll also notice how some other complementary music genres enhanced, accentuated, and decorated this mesmerizing number. Therefore, don’t be surprised if you stumble upon some of the vital elements of indie pop, dream pop, shoegaze, post-rock, soft rock, and other similar styles.

Deep Blue Ocean has some wild dynamics thanks to energetic and detailed rhythmic sequences built upon well-accentuated beats, breaks, and drum fills. You’ll also hear how the warm-sounding basslines give more heaviness, power, density, and clarity to the reverby chord progressions, riffs, melodies, and leads. The guitars shine bright in the mix among the mentioned orchestrations, and without them, Deep Blue Ocean wouldn’t sound the same. Still, you’ll solely focus your listening apparatus on Neve Bowen’s excellent vocal harmonies, decorated with many low, mid, and high tones. Her singing technics shine the brightest during the catchy choruses, and each vocal harmony perfectly suits the sonic background. Neve Bowen once again proves why she’s one of the best contemporary indie solo artists, and there’s no way you’ll find a better second single on the indie scene than Deep Blue Ocean. The song is available on all streaming platforms. Don’t miss it.
