Seattle-based musician, songwriter, and producer Zach Santos returns with a heartfelt little indie-pop jam, “Something Good,” from his new album, “Superbloom.” At age 24, Santos keeps finding room for himself with a combination of this kind of soul-searching storytelling and lush soundscapes. “Something Good” is a comforting yet contemplative listen calling on those who have it to treasure the precious moments that fly by unnoticed in the blur of daily life.
Carrying soft instrumentation and smooth melodies, “Something Good” encapsulates the fragile beauty of transient interactions. It’s about enjoying the warmth of a situationship, the undefined but meaningful relationship between two people, before returning to reality. Santos earnestly conveys this message, putting his poetic lyrics over soft guitar riffs and an airy, relaxed production.
The song’s warmth and sincerity make it seem like a hushed conversation with an old friend, seamlessly amalgamating indie pop with soft, enveloping textures. A world that rushes and pushes, Zach Santos says to slow down, live inside the moment, and make something palpable of the ephemeral. “Something Good” is a song, a feeling, a soft push to embrace the present. If this track is any indication, “Superbloom” is an album to explore, and Zach Santos is an artist to watch.
