“Keep On Love”, by Federico Ghidini, is an intoxicating blend of past and present musical elements, which intertwine the 70’s and 80’s melodies and notes with the freshened new sound. This song which is Ghidini’s introductory track reaffirms his various musical influences and his creative thinking.
It features some impressive vocal harmonies and takes back into the 70s and early 80s by echoing out the music of that time, while making you nostalgic yet content about it as a period. Ghidini uses the experience of his childhood music exposure that was through the records his uncle had, to gives him an introduction to the rich tapestry in English rock and the beats you could not only dance to but also couldn’t get enough.
Motown’s sound evolution has led to the creation of the “Motown Sound”, which is a genre that combines elements of gospel, jazz, blues, and doo-wop, and is known for its commercial potential and its universal appeal.
“Keep On Love” embodies the essence of that time-frame era, but at the same time, the song has a modern touch which is familiar yet full of freshness. Ghidini’s love for rock and R&B in the song surely appears in its dances-worthy pace and addictive hooks that allow listeners to sway to its contagious motion.
The song possesses a unique brand of a mix of yesterday and today which is a complete embodiment of Ghidini’s musical skills and creative faculty. It means the significance of classic rock and Motown will always be remembered old-timers and new listeners of these evergreens, respectively.
