Dreaming Man's 'Passing Through' Is An Eclectic Journey of Sound and Emotion

Hailing from the ashes of French band FOXO, Dreaming Man, the enigmatic solo project of the former lead singer, has unveiled his second album, ‘Passing Through’. Recorded between the vibrant energy of New York and the sun-soaked shores of Miami, the album is a testament to Dreaming Man's unique blend of British and American pop-rock influences.

‘Passing Through’ opens with ‘The World Is On Myself’, a minute-long instrumental overture that serves as a tranquil introduction to the album's sonic landscape. The track seamlessly transitions into a Lennon-esque vocal performance, showcasing Dreaming Man's ability to blend evocative lyrics with a rich musical tapestry.

Throughout even the earliest moments, the album's eclecticism shines through, shifting seamlessly between the bass-led groove of ‘We Are Losing It’, featuring a distinctly 80s synth influence and the title track, which brilliantly showcases Dreaming Man's dreamy pop-rock aesthetic, reminiscent of Pink Floyd's atmospheric soundscapes.

With its looping hypnotic rhythm and psychedelic undertones, ‘Don't Stop, Don't Look Back’ is a captivating mid-album highlight, cutting into ‘My Heroes’, which is an unexpectedly anthemic folk-rock track. Elsewhere, ‘It's Too Late’ offers a moment of reflection with its acoustic piano and guitar arrangement.

The album concludes with a wonderful reprise of ‘The World Is On Myself’, before pushing through to ‘All Alone Here’, a poignant closing track that blends personal introspection with universal themes of loneliness and self-discovery. The song's explosive rock anthem ending serves as a final testament to Dreaming Man's musical prowess, closing the album with a distinct and rousing moment.

From every angle, ‘Passing Through’ is a remarkable collection of tracks that showcase Dreaming Man's versatility and artistic vision. From ethereal layers to catchy grooves, and provocative lyrics to soulful guitar solos, the album is an immersive listening experience that rewards repeated listens.
