Single: As You Please by Rocco!
Review by Isabelle Turner
Rocco!'s entrance into the indie music scene is marked by a captivating blend of grace and undeniable talent. As a breath of fresh air in this genre, she is weaving a tapestry of emotions through her music. The enchanting allure of her sweet vocals and masterful melodies, showcased in the poignant track "As You Please," leaves an indelible impression. This debut promises to be the beginning of a remarkable journey in the music industry for the emerging artist.
As her debut single, “As You Please” has the maturity far beyond her sound. Taking inspiration from artists like Phoebe Bridgers and Gracie Abrams has helped the rising artist come strong into the alt-pop scene. Combining elements of rock with a tender and intimate guitar, the foundation of the track is incredible, and widely memorable. Her vocals stand out incredibly, with her raw and vulnerable voice contrasting perfectly with the produced backing. As her voice and lyrics lay against this backdrop, it creates a sense of immense depth that is on the brink of something epic. The song gradually builds, providing a level of emotional impact that resonates with all. Lyrically, the song creates an intense journey through feelings of love, loss, while concluding with Rocco! letting go. As she sings about a broken love, there is a sense of pain that feels soul clenching, even from the listener’s perspective. She details the sense of desperation that comes from young love and the repetition of lyrics allows her to emphasize the deep feelings she has. There are echos within the chorus that show her inner thoughts. The track is written beautifully and feels like a piece far beyond a debut single. Instrumentally, there is a sense of momentum throughout the track that allows “As You Please” to feel cinematic. Belonging straight out of a coming of age movie, the song tells a deep and emotional story.
Rocco!’s first song, “As You Please” is a cinematic and incredible piece that shows her pure talent as an artist. It serves as a testament to Rocco!'s innate talent and sets a high standard for her upcoming career. The track not only showcases her musical prowess but also establishes her as an artist with the potential to make a significant impact in the industry. “As You Please" is a compelling invitation to embark on an emotional journey through her music, and a great indicator of what Rocco! will accomplish.
