An Atlanta singer-songwriter with a dedicated sense of ambition, Herman Martinez is poised to elevate music imagination with his upcoming album release, "UltraTerrestrial," A meticulously crafted 11-track odyssey composed, recorded, and produced by Martinez, the album takes you on a kaleidoscopic ride where fantasies can become reality and where reality becomes coloured by dreams forgotten. Dreams that have yet to exist, where lost innocence and hidden secrets bind us, and where an unseen frequency connects us all. On "UltraTerrestrial," he offers a new phase of his life, and we have the dubious pleasure of joining him in this endeavour.
"UltraTerrestrial is a collection of forgotten dreams and memories you didn't know you had, underscoring his ability to conjure up a chaotic yet loving atmosphere in an era where we are increasingly lost to apathy. From the first few notes of the album, listeners are plunged headfirst into Martinez's undeniable perspective and a cacophony of masterful performance and acute songwriting that swings between madness and unadulterated creativity. When recorded just outside of Atlanta, the sessions were as chaotic and impromptu as the album is from beginning to end, infusing the project with an energy you can feel in every song.
Crafted, mixed, and mastered by Ahmed Mahmoud, with engineering provided by Chase Cassara, "UltraTerrestrial" showcases the full collaboration between Martinez's vision and the talent of his support team. The production of the album serves to maintain the raw, dreamy quality that Martinez's songwriting displays, while also deepening the listening experience. "Is it that I wrote these songs, or is it that these songs came to me for a reason?" Martinez reflects. "This album is my try at messing around with in a gap worlds stuck between frequencies and a memories for places you've never been."
The first single off the album, "Changeling," delves into questions of self-expression, challenging you to navigate the complexities of recognizing and occasionally not recognizing themselves. The album's undeclared side A comes to a close with the upcoming single "Sol," which delves into the creative process and the deeply spiritual act of creation, following the album's exploration of personal and cosmic introspection. Fans can also expect standout tracks, such as "I Hope Something Good Happens To You Today," that emphasize Martinez's skill in designing small yet immense musical atmospheres. Whether you prefer introspective or expansive singing, this album will captivate and challenge you in equal measure.
