Press InSite Magazine Song Sung Bleu Bleu's got a lot of friends, and they're way cooler than any of your friends. The album was Bleu's first, and was quite successful, scoring him one of the largest independent releases in the Northeast. It's hard to know just what to call Bleu. Producer also works, but while that describes the technical savvy with which the songs are assembled, it doesn't get to the passion in Bleu's voice, nor the subtlety of his guitar work.
Bleu is really a sculptor of sound.
This skill comes as no surprise as he's a graduate of the Berklee College of Music songwriting program. That concentration on production is evident as he paints layers of lush harmonies, heavy guitars, and subtle sonic bleeps and whirs upon the skeleton of the songs. The tracks on the album have the range of a Broadway theater score, from electronica tinged dance numbers to sullen and brooding indie pop. It really provides me with the ability to do something that's new. At the opposite end of the spectrum are the slow burners on this album.
