Daniel de Boer-Fly Away
Daniel de Boer has had an eventful life. He will continue to do so, that is the kind of musician he is. The music he makes is of a composer and instrumentalist reading between the lines of a notation sheet. A lot has to do with emotion, expression and the natural evoking nature of music. This is his latest single, Fly Away, from his album Out of Shadows. Here, Daniel elicits freedom. The flowing instrumentals and his soft voice bring the essence of the song in lucid, small bits. Read through the message any way you want, the spirit is quite exciting to witness and listen to. In ways, the song brings the levity of a Jacob Collier track, while Daniel is an expert in keeping it simple. When harmonics come in, they shine-and he takes the background. The production of the song allows it to be experienced for the multi-layered pudding it is. Scoop up enough of a slice, you’re in the zone for dessert. The unique approach to the groove makes it unlike any pop rhythm, yet has the framework that would suggest otherwise. This is a musician who has worked with the Metropole Orchestra, the Celebrity Edge Theatre Ensemble and Holland Opera. You expect excellence because it's clear to see and hear. His 2023 EP Mother Earth is as incredible as any song he has put out now. I would love to see this song in the movie titled with the same name, Fly Away (2011). Many elements match, and closer towards the joyous ending of the movie this song would be perfect. The music video is a piece of art and a must-watch. Listen to his song and a round of applause for the team that made the video!
