Hello, dearest readers and music lovers let’s give a warm welcome to Matt Deangelis. This NJ-based artist has released a song called “Dust in the Wind (cover)” This captivating song was released on the 13th of September. Let’s dive into the details of the song
The song has this beautiful and cheery guitar strum that captivates you right from the very first note before Matt’s beautiful vocal performance begins
The song serves as a powerful message about climate change. The persona in the song has lost all hope of the environment changing and the world’s sustenance of the earth( “now don’t hold on nothin’ lasts forever except the earth and sky”). This track also touches on the theme of the inevitability of death (“all we are is dust in the wind”)The song is poetic and sad because of how the climate is deteriorating. Even the cover art of the single shows a single withering tree in a once seemingly lush landscape that has now become a desert. It is my hope that this song will wake us up to fight for our environment and climate and I applaud Matt for sharing this message
The song was originally sung by artist Kansas. In this rendition, listeners get to enjoy a rather impressive and fantastic guitar solo mid-song and Matt’s beautiful falsetto. It was Produced by John DeAngelis, Matt DeAngelis, and Billy Kennedy with engineering by Billy Kennedy at Musically Speaking Studios in Southern New Jersey. This song is just a beautiful song and Matt has most definitely made Kansas very very proud with this cover
This track is a testament to Matt’s commitment to spreading awareness and positivity through his music. The vocal performance was very emotive and heartfelt, tugging on my heartstrings as it would you. Give this masterpiece a listen and you will never regret taking a chance on Matt ‘s positivity, charisma, awesome vocals, and artistry.
