CasPark has shared a new single called “In Demand”. CasPark is a recording artist mentored by Grammy-winning production duo Stargate and schooled at Berklee College of Music. After touring across America and selling out iconic LA venues, he's now making waves as a solo artist and collaborator in LA's bustling music scene. Influenced by the likes of blackbear, Daniel Caesar, and Frank Ocean, Cas has crafted a distinctive sound, showcasing his rich voice. His latest offering "In Demand" is a vibrant, infectious new song that takes on a refreshing feel with its airy guitars and smooth vocals.
Giving off a strong Antonio Carlos Jobim feel, CasPark presents a pitch-perfect valentine with “In Demand.” The delicacy of the arrangement adds to the tenderness in his voice. Navigation of these small yet significant gestures is visceral and captivating. He touches upon the laid-back, dream-pop aspects of Beach House, as certain moments have a light, bright kindness. The lyrics pine for togetherness while he explores relationship dynamics, adding to its intrinsic beauty while allowing you to experience the grace of unfiltered sound holding nothing back.
A hazy Sunday demeanor immediately takes shape. The song develops a sense of joy and release with each reiteration of the theme. Many different aspects play on each other adding to this shimmering organic quality, defined by the track’s sleek, laid-back keys and unhurried, grooving percussion. Even as the electronic elements with subtle synths enter the fray, “In Demand” retains its ethereal, natural atmosphere. Throughout the track, Cas keeps calm as the steadiness of the groove propels the whole sound forward. Fidelity is given the utmost importance letting the piece sparkle in the twilight. Rich vocal melodies develop throughout, and each flourish of the keys beneath feels sublime. The song progresses and crescendos until it becomes intoxicating. Much like love, the happiness that Cas radiates feels welcoming. Towards the end of the piece, he cleverly resolves this peacefulness, letting it evaporate.
CasPark's lyrical finesse shines in the mesmerizing flow of "In Demand.” He will be releasing new tracks in 2023, and if “In Demand” is any indication, we have a lot to be excited for from him this year.
