Guyanese artiste Simeon Browne has yesterday (Friday) dropped another one of his originals on the local arena. The song titled ‘Finding Aluna’ is part two of the single Lake Aluna, the singer released back in 2017.

“….the song is a result of a song I released sometime in 2017 called Lake Aluna. The first song is about a mythical being I created who lived in a village and died because of a flood”, the artiste said. He further explained that the spirit of the Aluna lived on, luring men into the lake.

The second song is a love story as a result of Aluna’s death where a loved one goes in search of her. “It’s really for the creative minds, those persons who can really dream and understand that so much exists out there and that love is never ending, it’s undying irrespective of all the challenges  that you would have had…,” he told The Scene.

The new single is a fusion of Electronic Dance Music (EDM) and his own original style he calls Suthan Dance. The rhythm includes EDM drums with a smooth melody. It is more of a live bass line that is backed with a synthesized bass that is synced with many instruments. Simeon have done a bit of acoustic guitar playing as well and that gives the song more of an energetic vibe to the love story being told.

The song art the young man shared, was a photo that was taken on his way to Essequibo via the ferry vessel. “It really inspired the idea as well. Going to Essequibo is just amazing. The scenery is really nice because of the tranquility prevails there. This would have led to the idea behind the second song”, Simeon said.

Two of the songwriter’s most recent songs are No Regrets and We Will Not Be Silenced. No Regrets is a Reggae song  that shares of the challenges people faced in their relationships, some of which have led to the persons they become today. However, We Will Not Be Silenced is more of a somber song that commemorates the memory of the Muslims who were massacred at a mosque in New Zealand earlier last month. In the song Simeon took to doing some reciting from the Koran.

Finding Aluna was released on YouTube at Simeon Browne and will be available within the first week on a number of digital platforms including Spotify and iTunes.

The songs were recorded and produced at the Wondamang Productions.
