This is the kind of music that makes you feel like you are floating in space, or better yet, like you have just discovered a treasure trove of gemstones, and now, your life is about to change forever! As a constantly evolving music producer, 26-year-old phvrien has developed a knack for innovative beats and emotionally uplifting soundscapes. A very good example of this is his previous single “I Can’t Do This,” one that has gone on to garner massive international buzz with over 1.1 million streams amassed so far. It is one of those songs that really found its listeners thanks to how enchanting, uplifting, and infectious it is. The sort that you find being randomly recommended to you, and once you listen to it, it instantly becomes a favorite, and now you cannot get enough of it.
Both “I Can’t Do This” and “Diamond” were conceived in San Francisco’s studios as a tribute to phvrien’s massive future trance fans. After seeing how well the first song was received, he thought to himself, why not? And that’s how we get ourselves this deep, rhythmically powerful, and ethereally haunting piece of art that belongs to a musical museum.
The sampled vocals set the tone with their airy, ethereal, and haunting appeal, their subtle, semi-robotic, whispery tones levitating over this mellow foundation that is building below. Following that sufficient buildup, the track is allowed to thrive, the deep driving beats, soaring synth leads, and pulsating melodies creating an otherworldly atmosphere.
phvrien does not compromise on rhythm with the steady, punchy kicks and rhythmic basslines keeping the energy at an all-time high and consistently so, backed by those climactic moments with the dynamic builds and drops as the ethereal vocals float over this sonic ocean nicely and smoothly, the haunting appeal so much palpable you want to hold on to it with your dear life.
With over 121K Spotify streams and counting, “Diamond” is already showing early signs of being a massive success, just like its predecessor, as phvrien continues showcasing his artistic worth to a devoted fanbase that has been following his every move with passionate admiration.
As someone who has continuously reinvented himself, phvrien certainly made waves via his other alter ego, “Who To Blame,” creating critically acclaimed projects that have been streamed more than 20 million times to date. It seems that success keeps chasing him wherever he goes!
I can assure you that “Diamond” is the sort of EDM music that you’ve fervently been searching for, and now it’s here, ripe for your own consumption and of those close to you…let’s feast!
