Love Me Like

Love Me Like That by ALYZRA is a romantic and passionate pop, R&B track about finding love and seizing the moment. The track conveys unapologetic confidence. The vocals are the first aspect that plays with your expectation as a listener. They have endless highs and lows in the harmonies, flowing up and down the melodic palette. Pitching the track up and down allows the emotions of the project to come through even more effectively. Pitching the voice down conveys the confidence at the core of the track’s personality and the higher pitch conveys this charismatic, funny charm that balances out the confidence beautifully. The two ebb and flow, pulling the audience along with them.

This track is built on that contrast. It really does feel like musical flirting as the track bounces between depth and levity. The volatility is also fun, keeping the audience on their toes with its constantly evolving energy. The rhythm feels like glue, holding together all of these melodic aspects. It forms a structure for the vocalist to dance around. It’s a testament to the musical talent and sonic cohesion that the vocal and melodic elements can move around so much and still create this cohesive whole that stands up as an individual track in the pop and R&B genres. The synths are another strong aspect, they amplify this bold energy with their charm. The high-end synths have this shiny timbre and ethereal texture, floating above the mix. Whereas, the deep synths contrast them with this soft bounce that contributes to the rhythm and the melody simultaneously. I’m impressed by the way these elements elevate the vocal without making the track feel busy. They sandwich the vocals with their higher and low register but give it space to shine right in the middle. I’m impressed by how much personality comes out through this track. The sonic texture is impressive and varied but at the end of the day, the  charming delivery is what makes it a cut above the competition.
