Human is the exciting new release from Swedish artist, Erik Odsell. Human is the artist’s latest single and the title track for his upcoming album. Odsell’s music perfectly fuses elements of modern pop and rock music, interspersed with electronic elements. The new single Human clearly also takes inspiration from the classical music genre, as it utilizes beautiful staccato strings to accompany the vocal track.
Erik Odsell notes the inspiration behind the writing of Human is the current development of ‘political rhetorics’ both within Europe and the United States. Odsell notes: “Many ‘political leaders’ today use rhetorics to divide us rather than unite us and, therefore, it’s more important than ever to hold on to basic human values such as empathy and caring about fellow human beings, no matter where they come from.”
This thoughtful and empathetic theme is evident throughout the new single Human. With sincere lyricism and emotive musical themes used throughout, Human is definitely a song that will resonate with many listeners during this difficult time.
