Joey Sachi and AKINAT Unveil New Single '7 Seconds'
Listen to the new dance track from Joey Sachi and AKINAT.
Joey Sachi and AKINAT team up on the buoyant new dance pop track, “7 Seconds”. Inspired by the life of classical musician Clive Wearing, the new track is now available.
“7 Seconds” is a sleek, slow burner of a track that meshes smooth synths with airy vocals to produce an ethereal aura for the listener. AKINAT’s uplifting instrumentals compliment Sachi’s tranquil vocals, proving to be an instant classic for fans of electronic music.
Sonically, the pair describe their time working on the track, as they “wanted to experiment making a track inspired by Fleetwood Mac’s ‘Dreams’ with a simple beat/layers and a topline influenced by Stevie Nicks’ melodic creativity.”
Joey Sachi talks in greater depth about the impact Clive Wearing had on track: “Clive Wearing is a British classical musician whose life was devastatingly impacted by a rare and severe form of memory loss. The profoundly beautiful part of Clive’s story is that his wife Deborah remained a constant in his life - the deepest of connections…almost instinctual, that despite his memory resetting every few seconds allowed him to always seek comfort amongst his fragmented existence. Inspired by his story we created ‘7 Seconds’, exploring the divine beauty in a love so deep, one that endures all the ebbs and flows of life.”
