“Full of creativity Chillstep creation, just out from “Clear eyes”. We really enjoyed the synth sound layering, in a low bpm mix with remarkable clarity. Also the soft voice of Marian raises the overall production level even higher.”

clear eyes is the passion project of of producer Jeremy Lloyd, the non-vocal half of Marian Hill. Delving deeper into electronic layering and palettes, the clear eyes project is a way for Lloyd to tap into a different mood, making music with beauty as its first priority and conjuring feelings of serenity and peace.
Still in recovery from a traumatic injury to both his wrists that rendered him unable to make music for 4 months, Jeremy is positively overflowing with creativity and has executive produced 3 albums that will all release this year (Marian Hill, Reo Cragun, and Clear eyes). “everything i’m missing” features the always-crystalline vocal stylings of his Marian Hill partner, Samantha Gongol. The first adjective that comes to mind with this track is “breezy”. From the sampled acoustic guitar plucks to Samantha’s vocals, there’s an unassuming swagger that is only compounded by simple beats that know exactly what their duty is.
As Lloyd puts it, “As a producer, you always have so many ideas that never make it to a release.” clear eyes is his opportunity to finally bring those sounds to our ears.
With all these song ideas now taking fruition, clear eyes is releasing an album that is filled to the brim with features. Feeling for Two includes features from a diverse array of artists — Fifth Harmony’s Lauren Jauregui, T.H.E.Y.’s Drew Love, indie-pop duo Slenderbodies, Bay-area rapper Rexx Life Raj, pop crooner Ayelle, frequent Flume-collaborator Reo Cragun, Lorem-favorite Nolie, electronic producers Tennyson and Lophiile, up and coming songwriter Roísin Marie, and of course, longtime collaborator Samantha Gongol of Marian Hill.
“I love the idea that I can have a session with any artist, from any genre, and come away with a song that feels like them and also feels like me. It’s about the balance of creating a unique sonic world where there’s still room for everyone. ”

“Take a deep breath and slow down the exhalation. Feel how the cells of your body are saturated with oxygen. Music passes through the whole body like a warm wave and time stops for a moment. The rhythms of DownTempo and Chillstep are immersed in trance by your consciousness and the background sounds are introduced into the meditation state.”
“Сделайте глубокий вдох и медленный выдох. Почувствуйте, как клетки вашего организма насыщаются кислородом. Музыка проходит через всё ваше тело тёплой волной и время на мгновение останавливается. Ритмы Downtempo и Chillstep погружают ваше сознание в транс, а фоновые фразы вводят в состояние медитации.”

Falling, at its essence is about a yearning for connection. Over the past year we have all felt disconnection; from loved ones, from nature. Written in 2020, during pandemic lockdowns Falling is my attempt to convey and counteract this sense of isolation. In order to do this I’ve incorporated natural elements into the sound design such as rain, sand, wind and even a fire crackling.
The track falling is heavy based around the piano in juxtaposition to the with super wide electronic saws synths and melodic bass throbs. I felt it was the perfect way to express such emotion, with a ’cinematic’ vastness; I wanted the listener to feel like they were floating in space euphorically.
“-Time for You to Go- is an awesome, deep composition, in which you need to listen and skip through yourself. Exciting lyrical and sound mix which adds even more emotionality, dynamism and corporate identity from -Sven Schwarz-.”
“-Time for You to Go- потрясающая, глубокая композиция, в которую надо вслушиваться и пропустить через себя. Увлекательная лирическая и звуковая составляющая добавляет ещё больше эмоциональности, динамичности и фирменного стиля -Sven Schwarz-.”

Nagamag:
Which are the genres that describe your music style better?
Doppe & Kokke:
We are definitely in the area of house music, in particular tropical house, and EDM. But we don't want to limit ourselves. We have a couple of chillstep tracks on the way also. We love a good melody that you can go and whistle on for a long time after hearing the track.
Nagamag:
Few words about your musical background and career?
Doppe & Kokke:
We have always been interested in music but never taken the step to produce our own. Our original careers are in a very different area. At least once per year we go on a road trip around Europe and we prepare for weeks before to have the right playlists to set the mood in the car. The last year we have not been able to go on a trip, but we missed it and the good music, so we decided it was time to produce some of our own beats that we can listen to when the lockdown is over.
Nagamag:
Do you remember your first connection of love to music that was the right impact to be a music artist now?
Doppe & Kokke:
The last years from maybe where Avicii, Kygo and similar DJs started to breakthrough I think we found a genre that was more appealing for both of us. We have always liked electronic music, but adding a great singer and making awesome melodies talks to us.
Nagamag:
What is your next project?
Doppe & Kokke:
We have a few new tracks in the making, but we are not stressing them. Without revealing too much one of them we are especially fond of which is a kind of mix of tropical house and RNB beats. We are currently working with a great singer and when she is ready I believe we have the next hit song ready.
Nagamag:
Many artists listen to genres that they are not producing music for. Which track is your favorite that is NOT similar to yours?

Of Course Nagamag would love to listen also which is the track from a similar artist you admire?

Ehrling "Sthlm Sunset"
“A very clean and well produced downtempo track with elements of IDM, Glitch & Chillstep. A haunting vocal and emotional string section add a real sense of spaciousness and an ethereal quality. ‘Lay Me Down’ is a fine example of how each instrument can be heard in detail and with such clarity, when in the hands of a production team at the top of their game.”

“A fresh lofi, chill-out track packed full of interesting sonic ideas. L’assiette (The Plate), is a musical dish served with a deep bass main, an accompaniment of catchy percussion & keys that you could say were organic lol. After the intro, a host of other elements are served thick & fast, but never too many to devour with relish. The vocal swells are the finishing touch to a very tasty meal. Bon Appetitie.”
