‘Some People’ feels epic in every which way. Art pop extraordinaire Agon Branza delivers a cinematic gem of a track that delves into discrimination and otherness with such meticulous dexterity across every facet of the arrangement. From his own striking vocals that are constantly wavering yet never losing note to the larger arrangement itself, which presents as a nigh operatic scale, it feels straight out of a movie. Perhaps unsurprisingly, Agon Branza has had classical and cinematic scoring experience prior to this.
It’s a deeply introspective track, one that draws from internal struggles and experiences while also conveying it in a way that many can understand and use to look inwards themselves. With a touching note on the production itself, Branza moves from a more minimal and traditional soundscape into something more electronic and contemporary, all the which while deploying strings and piano to retain this old adage.
Magnificent in message and scale, ‘Some People’ is something to marvel at.
