I don’t know what it is about Jazz that makes people either find it dull or intoxicating. I tend to see it as a sophisticated genre where it and its subgenres lean into adding spark to life, calmly or vigorously, they just have to leave their euphoric mark. Carsten Schnell’s “Another Day Another Dollar” is a blues ecstasy that belongs to type one, the peaceful, seamlessly leaving-a-smile type.
“Another Day Another Dollar,” by the Germany-based proficient musician Carsten Schnell, feels contrary to its title; it offers the optimistic notion of “Another day, another light, and another opportunity for extraordinary matters.” It sways softly, and the composition breathes deeply, conveying the atmosphere of a regular, routine day while sounding like the most enjoyable part of mundane days.
The single avoids complexity and provides an ethereal sense with its seasoned songwriting, passionate performance, and understated production. With its delicate guitar chords, smooth synth, and caressing percussion, this tune creates a captivating impression similar to how an ocean achieves it with just its waves coming and going. Close your eyes and take in the well-executed 3-minute fresh breeze.
Carsten Schnell doesn’t exaggerate; he flows maturely with graceful rhythms that carry rivers of emotions to water your soul with serenity and delight.
