New music from bōnd of endless tree

Behind the intriguing moniker bōnd of endless tree is Brazilian-born, Los Angeles-based artist Thiago Tolentino. A singer-songwriter and producer, Thiago has crafted an intensely personal and genre-blending sound that folds in elements of alternative rock, emo, pop and electronic influences.

His music is a reflection of his diverse musical background as well as a vessel for emotional exploration, with reflective lyrics that invite listeners to join him on a journey of self-discovery and deeper meaning. Having made his entrance with his debut single “Song Confined,” Thiago immediately marked himself as an artist unafraid to explore complex emotions.

His first outing introduced his honest songwriting style, capturing the internal conflicts that come with his experience of life’s pressures. He followed this with sophomore release “Fade Away,” a track that showcased not only his growth as a storyteller but also his ability to blend dark themes with upbeat, danceable rhythms. Both tracks formed the cornerstones for his original sound as bōnd of endless tree, one that balances melancholy with a sense of hope, providing listeners with both catharsis and connection.

Now, with his latest release, his brand new single titled “Drop,” bōnd of endless tree continues his musical adventure, presenting a track that’s at once haunting and emotional. The song’s creation process reflects the journey of many artists; a burst of initial inspiration followed by a period of self-doubt and eventual triumph. “I remember starting to write this song in my bedroom at my parents’ house, thinking, ‘Wow, this is awesome!’ Years later, I tried to produce it using the same original idea. When I finished the demo, I thought, ‘Man, this actually sucks.’ But I knew I had the core, I knew what I wanted to talk about, and it was important to me,” he shares.

That initial uncertainty is something many creatives will relate to, but Thiago’s dedication to reworking “Drop” until it reached its full potential speaks to his artistic perseverance. The result is a track that revolves around themes of vulnerability and self-reflection, echoing Thiago’s own emotional and creative growth.

Setting a dreamy indie scene with bright guitar plucks and softly floating vocals, delicate melodies drift above a shifting arrangement as the energy swells and falls away, crafting an enthralling listening experience. Gliding into a rock-tinged vibe with shuffling drums, lightly crunching guitars and impassioned vocal bursts, “Drop” sees bōnd of endless tree deliver a thrilling sound of modern alternative pop full of catchy hooks and energising rhythm.
