Late Night Radio
Colorado-based electronic music producer Late Night Radio introduces his latest album, Pocket Full of Dreams [Philos Records], an introspective masterpiece skillfully merging reflective rhythms and soul-inspired hip-hop beats. A testament to Late Night Radio's musical prowess, the new album also contemplates the thematic depth of life's pursuits and dreams, tracing the poignant highs and lows of such journeys. A consistent force in the evolving electronic music landscape, Alex Medellin (Late Night Radio) consistently crafts authentic sounds brought to life through his deep-rooted passion and diverse musical explorations. Pocket Full of Dreams stands as a testament to Medellin's life experiences, both in the realm of music and beyond.
While shaping Pocket Full of Dreams, the interplay between energetic tour experiences and reflective studio sessions became a key influencer. Alex drew inspiration both from the vibrant energy at shows, and from introspective moments away from the stage. He mentions, “Touring provides inspiration, but the quiet times let me truly connect with my experiences.” This balance sets the stage for Alex's revelation on the album’s deeper themes:
“This album was really about me getting back to making music for me and not just worrying about whether this will bump at a live show,” admits Medellin. “While touring it’s hard to create without the intention or influence of performing, so to have a break from live shows for a while really gave me a different perspective and the ability to draw on emotion, rather than energy.”
