Synth Single Review: “Christmas Memories’’ by The Blue Book Project

by Karl Magi

The Blue Book Project’s “Christmas Memories” paints a reminiscent picture of a season filled with togetherness and love. The track opens with a bell-like synth ringing out in a joyful, bouncy melody as the drums skip with smooth grace. The shining melody sparkles on a brightly luminous synth, conveying uplift and positivity as it sings out. Bending notes dance with happiness and nostalgia, painting images of warm family gatherings and smiling faces.

The beat remains steady and easygoing while the lead synth contributes cozy feelings that wrap around me, reminding me of fond childhood holidays. The chiming notes flash again while a slightly creaky synth calls out with contentment. When the piano enters, it has a light touch that increases the affectionate reminiscence permeating the song. Once again, the lead synth pours out encouragement and a seasonal sense of community and connection as the rhythm gently guides the music into silence.
