Liverpool-based rock-synth outfit RISE delivers a powerful musical statement with their latest single, “The Way You Make Me Feel” is a vibrant fusion of atmospheric synths, dynamic guitar work, and emotionally resonant lyrics. The track perfectly encapsulates the band’s distinctive sound: confident, uplifting, and packed with arena-ready energy.
Frontman Sam Kinley (performing under the moniker stayMellow) brings remarkable presence to his dual role as vocalist and bassist, his voice navigating the song’s emotional landscape with precision.
The instrumental chemistry is equally impressive—Brian Petch’s textured guitar lines weave seamlessly with Paul Kinley’s expansive synth arrangements, while Alex Mahoney’s dynamic drumming drives the track forward with purpose.
What makes “The Way You Make Me Feel” particularly refreshing is its lyrical commitment to celebrating enduring relationships. In an age often dominated by songs about fleeting connections, RISE offers a mature perspective on love’s sustaining power, exemplified in straightforward yet powerful lines like “You smile and life’s OK.” Producer Rob Whitely deserves credit for his meticulous approach, creating a production that balances technical polish with authentic emotional impact.
With this release, RISE further cements their reputation as one of the most promising emerging forces in the alternative rock landscape
