|    Sarah P. Releases "Berlin During Winter"    |

      "Berlin During Winter', the first single from Sarah P.'s upcoming solo debut       album Who Am I, is OUT NOW.              Genre-wise, Sarah's bending between dream pop and heavy guitar and bass riffs.       In her own words, "Berlin During Winter' is electro ambient-core. Lyric-wise,       "Berlin During Winter' has a twofold meaning. The obvious one, as the title       suggests, takes the        listener on a walk through Berlin, during the cold months. Everything is gray       and freezing cold. All colors are faded as if a painter mixed them with black       and white tones. And as cold as Berlin gets, cold enough to even freeze the       people's emotions, it        leads to the second interpretation; depression.              "I'm not new to depression. Are you?' asks Sarah. People are under constant       pressure from all side. No matter if rent, food, clothes, relationships, or       the worries about our public image. "How do people perceive us in the       so-called "outside world'. We        have profiles on various platforms where, to get likes, we really need to put       some effort. Whether profiled as snarky or cutesy or something in between, we       learned which one is our good angle, which type of photos are driving more       traffic to our channels,        which one is our niche.'              However, there are things that not even the sad, crying emoji can express.       Devastation, pain, sorrow, war. And there's war all around us and it feels       like the next wars are waiting around the corner. There's hate everywhere and       unfortunately, in real        life, haters can't be blocked. "The internet life is taking over the offline       one creating chaos. Hate is making the world go around, hovering us all in a       big, fat tornado. And if that's not depressing, I don't know what is.'              About the video:       While following the events at the current war zones, Sarah decided to make a       video for "Berlin During Winter'. Although she lives in Berlin, the song's       setting is symbolical. Using public domain footage from war archives, Sarah       gave "Berlin During Winter'        a striking video. "We can't undo our history, but we can learn from it and       shape our future. Especially this winter it's about time that we break from       our bubble,' Sarah says. "We spent so much money on gifts and parties while       knowing that people        somewhere else were dying or taken their homes away. The hypocrisy levels we       have hit are beyond embarrassing and it's about time that we do something.       Despite how perfect our (social media) lives may be, we shall turn around and       see the world without        beautifying filters. We need to roll up our sleeves and ACT NOW. Not in a       superficial way, not with hashtags. This time, for real.'              Website: http://www.sarahpofficial.com/       Music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Le47qS9pZbs              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
