It’d be “Better on Screen,” as the saying goes on Larlin’s new track. The Alternative Pop jam is full of heavy guitars and distant synths that create a layer of warmth on top of the track. Larlin’s soothing vocals are melodically pleasing and harmonically rich.

The lyrics come with a sense of longing, and the instrumentation that backs them is fitting for this feeling. The idea of imagining something would be better on screen is a sad reality many have to face when a situation doesn’t play out how they thought it would in their head.

Route 500’s new song “Molly Coddle” is out now. The track’s unique melody helps to create a specific vibe that isn’t found in much modern music. The texture and melody of the track almost makes it feel vintage, but with a modern twist.

The modest drums on this track are perfect for maintaining the retro aesthetic and keeping listeners’ attention on the melodic aspects of the song. Route 500 feels timeless, and I can’t wait to see what other forgotten eras they revive in their music.
