New York’s Paris Heart is an electrifying force in the music scene, and his latest EP is no exception
Paris Heart, known personally as Marquee Peters, is an African-American-Spanish New Yorker carving out his place in the industry.
On a journey to connect with his cultural roots, Heart has found music to be the universal language that lets him fully express himself.
Under the glow of midnight, isolation intensifies every thought, and Paris Heart channels this feeling with a Frank Ocean-like precision in Search for Me.
Each track plunges listeners into the depths of late-night solitude, where introspection hits harder, and every beat hums with moody, haunting clarity.
Like Ocean’s ode to solitude ‘Nights’, Heart crafts soundscapes that resonate with quiet revelations, transforming each listen into an intimate journey through the shadows of self-discovery
His new EP, Search for Me, pulses with soul and rhythm, and is the latest taste of Heart’s sonic expertise, channelling his innermost feeling into good beats and groovy melodies.
“Sonically we wanted to represent that time you spend alone with your thoughts, when you start to uncover layers of yourself,” Heart explains.
The EP opens with “Pretty Girls,” a moody yet irresistibly vibey track laced with smooth synths and a catchy chorus.
Next up is ‘Coupe De Ville,’ his most popular track to date, with 2 million Spotify streams, embodying the quintessential Paris Heart sound.
Its edgy guitar riffs and crisp drums create a seamless flow, with an instrumental break that blends punk-rock and pop-rap vibes.
Following up is ‘Gnarly’, which has the alt-indie feel of a Role Model song but the rock-infused vocals of a Kenny Hoopla track.
It’s a perfect genre mix, one that’ll keep you moving from start to finish.
‘On My 64’ follows, delivering a built-up intro and a melancholic atmosphere, that spotlight Heart’s ability to channel raw emotion and personal experiences into his music.
“Do you really wanna, do you really wanna know / When it’s getting way too late and everybody thinks alone,” he sings, capturing the essence of late-night solitude with evocative lyrics.
The track exemplifies his rich lyrical catalog, weaving memories of late-night introspection and quiet anxieties into the EP.
The EP closes with ‘Search for Me,’ its most moving piece.
A thunderstorm introduces the track, leading into Heart’s soulful vocals, which inspire deep reflection in the listener.
As a pop-rock ballad, the title track is both poignant and introspective, Heart’s personal invitation for fans to explore the depths of his mind.
Search for Me stands as some of Paris Heart’s most significant work, seamlessly blending genres and showcasing his open-hearted lyricism.
