Song Review/ Electro Pop : Larry Karpenko’s ‘God Help Us’
Larry Karpenko’s music is an authentic extension of his core themes like faith, belief, God, hope, and positivity. Sometimes he uses bare, naturalistic acoustics, other times the expanse of alt folk and storytelling frames. For his latest release, ‘God Help Us’, he forges a contemporary blend of spoken word, rap, and soul music to craft a path to god, especially on the darkest nights.
The song is touched by soft electric synth pulses, fluid bass grooves, and a spontaneous beat line. Larry’s vocals are contemplative and explorative in this mysterious sonic atmosphere. They grow emphatic when the rap verses come on; insightful, profound, and so full of clarity. All of this gives it that compelling power, one that draws a realization out of you. It gets you to see the undeniable truth of faith, and the freedom contained in it. Listen Now!
