Melodic house tastemaker and Monstercat Silk veteran Shingo Nakamura returns to the label today with the mellow new record, “Golden Leaves.”
Shingo’s masterfully crafted record gives listeners a dreamy sensation through the imagery of falling autumn leaves. He stays true to his stunning signature piano melodies while experimenting with a slower atmospheric tempo that showcases his scenery-setting artistry. The single follows the trail of his emotionally inspiring Monstercat Silk releases this year, “Come Closer”, “Foggy Morning”, and “Wherever You Go.”
Shingo Nakamura shares, “This time I wanted to create a chilled, warmer sound than usual. Images of autumn and golden leaves came to mind during the process, and I made it sound like I was walking in the mountains. I hope listeners will be able to feel the beautiful fall foliage scenery.”
