FRGN-SPCMN Reveal Captivating New Album RIDE AROUND THE SUN
FRGN-SPCMN’s latest album, RIDE AROUND THE SUN, takes listeners on a deep dive through rich soundscapes and introspective lyrics. North Carolina producers Ronnie Belle and André Jones have crafted an experience that feels both a personal diary and a universal story. Combining hip-hop, R&B, and experimental sounds, the album captures that hazy, late-night vibe where thoughts come freely, and every beat invites reflection.
The title track, featuring Mez and Ace Henderson, embodies the album’s heartbeat. Mez’ verses bring raw storytelling to the forefront, while Henderson’s hook distills the bittersweet theme of the project: the tension between pain and fleeting joy. The production on this track is subtle yet striking, with a depth that mirrors the contemplative nature of the lyrics. It’s a track that invites you to sit with it, pulling you into its world.
Drawing inspiration from a soul-searching journey to the desert landscapes of Joshua Tree, RIDE AROUND THE SUN has a timeless quality. FRGN-SPCMN’s sound choices – such as ambient guitar tones and hypnotic beats – make the music feel expansive, almost like driving through a desert under a starlit sky. Each track flows into the next, evoking a sense of travel through physical space and the cycles of human experience.
For fans of genre-bending music with emotional depth, this album offers a chance to get lost in sound and sentiment. It’s a reminder that, even though we all experience life differently, we’re all in this ride around the sun together. With this project, FRGN-SPCMN cemented themselves as not just producers but storytellers, capturing the complexity of life in a beautifully crafted album.
