Setting the tone with vibrant, sliding guitar and immersive keys, Carter Fox opens Cosmic Sunrise with intrigue and dimensionality as the opus expands into a trip-hop meets downtempo-hybrid soundscape, with intricate percussion and cosmic detailing, in line with the concept of the song.
Cosmic Sunrise expands with nuance, dynamism and Steve Honz on synth, to create a cerebral tapestry that is signature to the creative style of Carter Fox‘s EP, Astronomical. We learn that Carter Fox‘s music is inspired by space, science, and video games, and hopes to inspire others through his music to live positively and be good people.
We appreciate the sonic universe that Carter creates, as well as the optimistic and galactic message that he shares with his artistry. Each of his artworks for the singles fit perfectly with the astral soundscape, and we love the cohesive thread that ties his art together.
It is no surprise that Carter’s music has been featured on Spotify’s Chill Instrumental Beats, All-Nighter, and Focus & Chill editorial playlists, as well as numerous streams and blogs.
The established bassist and producer from Philadelphia has been an active musician, songwriter, producer, and artist since he was 15, growing from playing in local bars and clubs, to sharing stages with Jeffrey Osborne, Patti LaBelle, and the Isley Brothers in theatres, arenas, and stadiums all over the world.
His EP, Astronomical, which we have also been streaming, introduces us to Carter Fox as a “soulful traveller”, and an avid advocate of passionate music. The EP also features an ensemble of talented artists and producers including Steve Honz, Damn Stargazers, and Fried Monk on various tracks!
We have added Cosmic Sunrise to our New Music Spotlight playlist, whilst we continue to stream Astronomical and Carter Fox‘s wider discography!
