Filip Dahl-Can You See the World
Sometimes it’s not enough to listen Filip Dahl belt out a song. You have to actually see it to believe it. A true rock fanatic with an ingrained essence of rock in his music, there is a special kind of sound this artist exudes. You can get to know it’s Filip with the extensive multi-instrumental madness, along with flowing melodies in any of his songs. This is his latest single, Can You See the World.
With just the opening, you can hear so much. The mystery comes from a darker tone, which opens the song. It might be the dread of the current scenario we live through, narrated notationally. As the sweet solo opens it, you hear a tone maybe only Satch could control, but a soul to the sound only Gilmour could execute. The opening does sound all kinds of classic rock, like Wishbone Ash, but essentially like Filip Dahl. The lyrics are meaningful and create the pool of depth along with the guitar playing. The verse section instrumental itself has so much character, being a progression you rarely hear. I guess this is what you must expect from a virtuoso producer, performer and composer.
Though the lyrics make it specific, a wonderful version of this song, maybe an instrumental, would be ideal for Blue Planet-the documentary. Filip has so much signature tone and sound with just his instruments, the original broth of the song is retained. Listen to his 2022 album Storyteller, for a masterclass in composition and narrative making. Follow him for more incredible music!
