Heart Tide Releases New Song "Blame"
Back with a vengeance, Heart Tide is here with ''Blame'', a fresh new song and the first since the release of 2017's "Vulnerable". The melancholic Finnish outfit is taking few risks on the track and showing again a new side musically.
''Writing "Blame" was a very different experience for me. I usually don't start Heart Tide songs from making beats but this time it just flowed right out of me. The music on the verses then inspired the lyrics and it all happened so fast. I felt it had something special in it. Even on "Vulnerable", I think you can hear a lot of diversity and on these new songs I want to keep it going. Different sounds, styles, instruments, what ever comes naturally. I try not to limit myself too much. If you do that, it might take the fun out of songwriting,'' said frontman Samu Hietainen.
Still keeping some of the familiarity of "Vulnerable" with the black-and-white imagery, Heart Tide is here to kick butt and take names while experimenting with new things. In 2018, you can expect more music for much pleasure to the fans. Hietainen says that the feedback from music fans all over the world last year is motivating him to get better as a songwriter and as an artist.
''I put "Vulnerable" up for a free download and it had a massively positive outcome. People shared it and the amount of downloads was overwhelming. I had a wall of messages from all kinds of music listeners saying they enjoyed the songs. It was beautiful to hear.''
After the release of the mixtape "Vulnerable" last year, Heart Tide is setting it's sights on keeping the train moving. You can check out "Blame" right over HERE.
Heart Tide Writes You A Prescription With New Song "Medicate'"
Heart Tide has released a visualizer for a brand new track ''Medicate''. Arguably showing a glimpse of the heavier side, this is the tenth single released and the last this year. Speaking about the song:
''Medicate is absolutely the most ambitious thing I've ever written'' Samu Hietainen explains. ''I knew it was going the be the last song released so I wanted to make it feel like the last song on the record. A great build-up and lots of valleys and peaks. Production-wise I spent the most time on it. Obviously when a song is six minutes long, there are so much details you can work on and obsess over. In the end I do feel extremely satisfied with what the song became. I think it's massive.''
Medicate and the other nine singles released so far will be on Heart Tide's first ''mixtape'' called Vulnerable, which will come out on December 1st. Pre-orders will be available on November 24th.
''I think the ''mixtape'' release is the best thing to do right now for me. There's not really anyone else besides rappers that do it so I thought it would be fun to try something unusual. It's an eclectic collection of songs, there's something for almost everyone. And even though I didn't write the songs with an album in mind, it still feels like a body of work.''

Heart Tide Releases New Song "Silence"
Keeping up with Finland, Heart Tide has released a new song called Silence. The outfit revealed the track with an aesthetic black and white streaming video just like they have done with all the previous releases. Frontman Samu Hietainen feels that this is the tune newcomers should visit first.
''I feel like this is the song I imagined to write after Alright. It just didn't come right after it and even when I got the inspiration it took like solid two months to finish it. But you can definitely hear it in the songwriting and the arrangement, the amount of detail and effort. Lyrically I always want to leave the listener to figure out their own meaning but this is the first Heart Tide song I didn't write them about specifically about myself, I tried to combine a personal and a global perspective into them. This time I wrote the music first so I spent a lot of time creating the layers upon layers to make it sound like it belongs to an arena. If you want to show one Heart Tide song released so far to someone else, this is it.''
Heart Tide has released seven songs so far and there's still couple more to come this year. Check out their latest song "Silence" HERE.

Heart Tide Streams Emotional New Track "A Rocking Chair"
Hailing from Finland, Heart Tide is streaming a new song "A Rocking Chair" accompanied with a video. The song is outfit's fourth release in the same number of months.
"A Rocking Chair" is musically a journey to a whole new place for Heart Tide as the song is based only on straightforward piano chords and emotionally delivered vocals. The focus from previously released songs has shifted from powerful guitars and drums to creating a picture with delicate simplicity and melodies that scream out ''singalongabillity''.
''I hesitated to put this one out because I didn't write it for Heart Tide really. I always imagined sending the song to other artists to see if they would cut it. What happened though was that I became really invested in to the lyrics. I just couldn't let anyone else sing them. They were too personal'' opens up the frontman Samu Hietainen.
