Humans are flawed; it’s part of who we are. Our perfection is found in our imperfections. Music, on the other hand, can be flawless when the artist is pro about what he’s doing and does it with love. Brainheart’s “Keep Me from Falling Apart” combines the best of both worlds, portraying the faults of relationships while delivering an unmistakable soundscape.
Brainheart is the alter ego of Roi Zohar, an independent music producer, songwriter, and DJ based in the United States. He began playing the piano when he was fifteen years old, and it has been his sanctuary ever since. You can taste his genre verity just by listening to his single, “Keep Me from Falling Apart”; he shuffles through them to express himself as he desires, creating an infectious sonic euphoria.
“Keep Me from Falling Apart” is a fiery pop take with spicy punk flair. It bursts with energy from both the composition and vocal performance of the talented singer/songwriter Dorel. The song captures the tense atmosphere of relationships: how each element engages relentlessly with the other, giving the vibe of a couple’s controversy, with frustration mixed with love in the air.
The track is drenched in positive synth rays, which, along with the captivating guitar riffs and bouncy percussion, act as an emotion stirrer; it’s an emotional and adrenaline rush overload. Brainheart keeps it classic and neat; the beats are addictive and do not exaggerate, overshadowing the lyrical theme; on the contrary, you get to feel the sensitivity of both the music and what it portrays. In this matter, Dorel’s passionate vocals play a major role; his dulcet, soulful tone, coupled with such a powerful delivery, sets an epic ambiance. An exploding guitar solo that takes one over the clouds adds another chapter to the saga.
The hidden gem is that Brainheart is not just a brilliant EDM producer; he can offer a raw, poignant acoustic version and still rock! There’s a dreamy acoustic texture to “Keep Me from Falling Apart” that’s twice as emotive with the sentimental performance of the vocal line and the instrumentation. Dorel unleashes his most venerable fabrics, and the piano notes with the dramatic strings weave the rest of the delicate, exquisite canvas.
Well, obviously, Brainheart is cornering one to admire him, and for me, he effortlessly succeeded. Keep an eye on him, because I’m sure he still has a lot to offer.
