Solarstone is 'Thinking of You'
With some killer producer/singer-songwriter debuts already under his 2024 belt, (‘The One’ and ‘Revelation’ sung by Stine Grove & Evan Henzi to be exactingly specific!), Solarstone’s lifted every club voice this year.
Time for some instrumental finery then!? Well yes and no …
Like oaks from acorns, Richard’s summer wonder starts elemental … then builds, builds, builds till it’s as high as it’ll go! With bass seeding groove into every galloping kick, it pours timbale-style percussion, mid-90s-riffing fx and a horn-tipped mainline onto a club-floor that we wager’s not even close to ready!
Naturally, Solarstone can’t resist giving the heartstrings a bit of a tug too, letting Barber-esque bowstrings sweep emotively through its drop. As they do, its instrumental harmonies, so subtly woven into its fabric, clarify into its titular topline … and ‘Thinking Of You’s well and truly born!!
Once heard, never to be forgotten, today, Solarstone is ‘Thinking of You’!

LostLegend's 2023 revision of Shards.
Master of the compact title, Solarstone’s been on a single word roll over the last few months, letting the music behind ‘Sovereign’, Hope and ‘Vision’ do all the necessary ‘talking’.
While ‘Shards’ continues that run of succinctness, the track’s lineage dates back less months and more years. It was originally coded into ‘. . —’, Solarstone’s 2018 artist album, where it swiftly became a tracklist-favourite amongst fans. Featuring Solarstone on both its production and vocals, the singles-spotlight never quite reached ‘Shards’ though, despite its popularity.
That is up until today …
Over the last few years, Brenden Fitzpatrick’s LostLegend alias has been picking up all the right types of buzz. The Liverpudlian producer has been rotating his own original productions with tightly curated bootlegs and some highly imaginative official remixes (for Andy Duguid, Craig Connelly and others). That ultimately brought him onto Solarstone’s radar, who saw his skilful handling of vocals as key to a 2023 revision of ‘Shards’.
That’s been fully born out as Brenden’s rhythmically thumping prog backing and strummed guitar licks create a max-impact platform for Richard’s soul-baring words and song. One for those well in touch with their emotional side, LostLegend’s remix of ‘Shards’ receives its singles stripes today. You can find it on all good sales and streaming platforms from today.
