Brooklyn based singer-songwriter and producer Tomás Tomás shares dreamy, cinematic track “Brought It Down” from debut EP ‘Sweet Sleep’ accompanied by a serene New York City set music video co-directed with actor Jaeden Martell serving as part one of a three-part short film. The artful musical project from Tom Fattorusso, whose previous roles include assistant director and composer for campaigns like the Savage x Fenty Show, presents a soothing collection he calls “music you walk to” built as refuge from world overstimulation and an effort to get rest for the soul. The artist explains going through life feels confusing and fascinating, constantly searching for answers and meaning through reflection, but 2024 left little time to smell roses or flowers of any kind until eventually resorting to isolation proved liberating, making the project his therapy while speaking his mind through sound brought comfort.
‘Sweet Sleep’ spans seven tracks as a dreamscape allowing the artist to pose questions on coping with reality, eventually concluding answers may be unattainable though even that sentiment feels more comforting than existing without thought. The EP was produced across several friends’ living room floors using just his headphone microphone and a Scarlett solo interface before collaborating with Alex Black-Bessen and Tim Voet for finishing touches. Tomás Tomás describes the project as an extension of his search for meaning, reckoning the music works best heard while on an evening walk where questions about life can float freely without demanding immediate resolution.
