Cloud Releases New Song “In My Dream”
“In My Dream” absolutely nailed me on the first listen. Cloud captures something real here that most songs miss entirely.
The track builds beautifully. What starts subtle becomes this powerful rush by the middle section. Luis Gerardo Moreno’s guitar is incredible, getting sharper and more commanding as it goes. Alex DP’s drums don’t just follow along either, they drive the whole thing forward. You feel every shift between verses and chorus.
The lyrics work in this perfect space between imagination and reality. “In my dream” versus “in my head” sounds small until you really hear what Cloud’s doing. Exploring the gap between who someone is in your thoughts versus who they actually are is bold territory, and Cloud handles it with real maturity. Most love songs don’t even try to go there.
Dreams are double edged in the best way. They lift you up and they wreck you at the same time. That duality comes through naturally without ever feeling forced.
You can feel the Nirvana influence in how the song moves between quiet and loud, between stillness and movement. Cloud isn’t copying though, just drawing from the same well in an original way. The three musicians work together so cleanly. Nothing steps on anything else. That balance is what makes this work.
“In My Dream” stays with you after it ends. This one’s special.

Mané’s ‘The Goddess in the Room’ Turns Self-Discovery Into Sonic World-Building
There is a remarkable sense of intention running through The Goddess in the Room, the latest project from Swiss artist Mané. Blending alternative electronic pop with ritualistic percussion and spiritual symbolism, the album presents itself as both a personal statement and a carefully constructed narrative. Across its nine tracks, Mané explores identity, healing, queerness, and empowerment with impressive clarity of vision.
The opening track, “The GODDESS in the Room,” functions as both invitation and thesis statement. It introduces listeners to a world where intuition and self-trust become guiding principles, while establishing the atmospheric production style that shapes much of the record. The song’s spacious arrangement creates room for reflection, a quality that becomes one of the album’s defining characteristics.
That introspection deepens on “perles de sang” and “sappho.” The former grapples with inherited pain and bodily experience, while the latter offers a moving celebration of queer identity. Throughout these songs, Mané avoids reducing complex themes to slogans, instead allowing emotional nuance to emerge through carefully crafted songwriting and evocative imagery.
Musically, the album reaches some of its most intriguing moments on “)O(” and “moonstones.” Both tracks highlight Mané’s growing confidence as a sonic architect, blending electronic textures with organic rhythmic elements inspired by shamanic practice. The resulting sound feels immersive and transportive without losing its emotional immediacy.
Meanwhile, “j’serai tjr là” and “chocolate con sangre” provide some of the record’s most vulnerable moments. Here, Mané strips back some of the conceptual grandeur to focus on connection, memory, and emotional endurance. These songs reveal an artist equally capable of intimate storytelling and ambitious world-building.
The penultimate track, “Witches,” injects a surge of collective energy into the album’s narrative. Drawing on themes of resistance and feminine power, it stands as one of the project’s most direct statements while retaining its atmospheric sophistication. It is both politically resonant and emotionally charged.
By the time “ALIGNED” closes the record, the journey feels complete. Not because all questions have been answered, but because the search itself has become meaningful. The Goddess in the Room succeeds through its commitment to authenticity and vision, establishing Mané as an artist unafraid to follow her own path, wherever it may lead.
