Conceptualising and speaking from his inner child, Cayo Coco brings a unique perspective with his incredible new single, titled “Gently, Dreamer”. The track takes the listener on a journey as we hear from his wounded inner child but as it nears the end it expresses the freedom he feels and puts a positive spin on the whole story. This awesome new single acts as the follow-up to his previous single “Om Mani Padme Hum”.
Cayo Coco, the brainchild of accomplished multi-instrumentalist and producer Lumen Loraine hailing from Indiana but now based in Los Angeles, is a musical odyssey that traverses the realms of healing and inner exploration. Evoking themes of hope and wonder, Cayo Coco’s creations are an auditory celebration of joy, inviting listeners to embark on a magical journey of introspection. With millions of streams and support from Spotify editorial playlists, as well as a feature on Pharrell’s Apple Music podcast, OTHERtone, Cayo Coco’s music resonates deeply. His most-streamed track on Spotify is titled “Run from You”, which has gained over 986k streams on the platform, with “Falling (OFF THE EDGE!)” following behind at half the amount of streams. Through his artistry, Lumen Loraine beckons us to delve within the lush forests of our own consciousness with Cayo Coco offering a guiding light through the mysteries of existence. Amidst the whispering pines and shadows of the unknown, Cayo Coco extends an invitation to trust the path and embrace the transformative power that lies within.
Written by Blake Harman, Lumen Loraine, and Zach Fogarty, with the latter two songwriters acting as the Producers, “Gently, Dreamer” is a progressive indie-rock song that really allows expressionism from this inner child. Cayo Coco’s vocals signal across a variety of poignant lyrics while various instruments flood the backing track to give a full sound explosion held by an addictive melody flowing through enigmatic rhythms, allowing “Gently, Dreamer” to encompass fluidity. Passion and emotion hits listeners throughout and Cayo Coco really showcases his artistry, especially as he performed every instrument that is heard on the track.
“I experienced multiple life-changing soul connections over the last three years. Each of them shined an awareness into the depths of my being, and I saw many things I had been avoiding in myself. A lot of my songs are about the magic that meeting those people unlocked within me. This music is for them, myself, and anyone else who is healing and is on the path,” Cayo Coco confides. “With any of my songs, if you ask me what I played or how I did it, it’d take me a minute to figure it out. I don’t know keys or theory, I just know how to have fun and get lost in the sonic landscape.”
